It's voting day and also a dry day on Tuesday for the state of Maharashtra. But liquor flowed freely at this restaurant at the International airport. This is not all, the restaurant, which also operates a hookah bar, did not even have a permit to sell liquor.

When MiD DAY reporters visited the Royal Classic restaurant at the international airport near the Air India parking, it seemed like any other restaurant operating in the night. It was only after making discreet enquiries with the waiters, did the reporters realise that the liquor from the best of brands could be consumed at the restaurant itself, provided you were ready to pay the price.
