How Pune hotels are running circles around SC's highway liquor ban
Updated On: 22 May, 2017 08:40 PM IST | Pune | Chaitraly Deshmukh
<p>With a little help from the state, Pune hotels and bars restructure their entrance and make access routes longer than 500 m from the highway to circumvent SC's liquor ban</p>


The Orchid VITS already has a permit from the state
Hunting for a drink near the highway will leave your head spinning even before you get a sip of alcohol. Several reputed three and four-star hotels in the city are now literally drawing a loophole around the law by cutting off the direct access routes and instead installing fences to create new routes that are more than 500 m from the highway. What's more, many of them even have the state's permission to do this.
