https://www.taxtmi.com/caselaws?id=237671 Regulation of the location of a country liquor shop in a residential area was upheld where the shop was near a newly developed residential building and complaints of nuisance and public inconvenience were raised. The Court treated renewal of the licence as a fresh grant, so the distance restriction under Rule 5(4) of the U.P. Number and Location of Excise Shops (Fourth Amendment) Rules, 2008 applied. It held that public interest is a relevant consideration in controlling liquor shop location and that there is no fundamental right to trade in liquor in a manner contrary to lawful restrictions and residential convenience. The relocation direction was therefore sustained. en-us Thu, 11 Apr 2013 00:00:00 +0530 Sat, 28 Sep 2013 10:11:00 +0530 TaxTMI RSS Generator https://www.taxtmi.com/caselaws?id=237671 Regulation of the location of a country liquor shop in a residential area was upheld where the shop was near a newly developed residential building and complaints of nuisance and public inconvenience were raised.
