Bihar May Lift Liquor Ban

The National Democratic Alliance (NDA) in Bihar seems to be reconsidering its stance on the liquor ban. A recent report by the National Council of Applied Economic Research (NCAER) has sparked a political stir, suggesting that controlled sale of liquor could generate significant excise tax revenue for the state. This development has led to speculation about a possible U-turn on the liquor ban, which was implemented to curb alcohol consumption and related social issues.
