Published

on

The Excise Department has made arrangements to issue liquor sales licenses to 300 Sathosa outlets across the country.

Accordingly, arrangements are currently being made for the immediate issuance of liquor licenses to all Sathosa outlets that have met Excise Notification 902 requirements.

However, it was reported that complications have arisen in issuing licenses since some Sathosa outlets have not met the basic requirements and due to public protests.

Internal sources of the Excise Department said that attention has been paid to issuing these licenses to certain Sathosa outlets that have not met all the requirements.

Once the Excise Commissioner General approves relevant licenses, steps will be taken to open liquor sales counters at Sathosa outlets.

So far, the Excise Department has issued about 6,000 liquor licenses throughout the country.
