Delhi Deputy Chief Minister Manish Sisodia accused former lieutenant governor Anil Baijal on Saturday of changing his stand over opening liquor vends in unauthorised areas. “Under the new excise policy, 849 shops were to be opened across Delhi, including in unauthorised areas,” Sisodia said, adding that the project was approved by LG Baijal.
However, Sisodia told media, Baijal changed his stance at the last minute and introduced a condition that said permission from the Delhi Development Authority (DDA) and the Municipal Corporation of Delhi (MCD) would be required for opening liquor shops in unauthorised areas.
