There is a bonanza for tipplers as they can organise mega celebrations on the occasion of Xmas and New Year.
The state excise department on Friday issued a notification extending the timings of the wine shops till 1 am from 10.30 pm on December 24 and 25 and also on December 31. Further, the government has also increased the timings of the permit rooms up to 5 am from 1.30 am on these three days.
The decision was taken as the demand increases for liquor on these days for celebrations.
