Mizoram Plans to Amend Liquor Prohibition Law

• The Mizoram government is planning to amend the liquor prohibition law to allow the sale of wine and beer.
• Chief Minister Lalduhoma announced the plan during a discussion in the assembly.
• The amendment bill will be introduced during the ongoing budget session.
• The current prohibition law, enacted in 2019, bans the sale, manufacture, and consumption of liquor.
• The move follows the government's decision in September 2022 to allow the manufacture, sale, and export of wines from locally-grown grapes.
