Panaji: As the new tourism season has kicked off, the shack owners, who have been granted licences by the Department of Tourism, are been asked to obtain licences for retail sale of liquor.
The Office of the Commissioner of Excise is facilitating hassle free service for issuance of licences for those shack operators who want to serve liquor. Excise Inspectors have been directed to keep the Offices open on Saturdays during the month of October 2018.
The teams of Excise officials will be on surprise inspections and strict action will be taken against the violator as per the rules in force.
