What This Document Says

Maharashtra eGazette Amendment Summary

FORMAT B: NON-FEE AMENDMENT

Type of Change: Circular/Policy Directive

Subject Matter: Termination of Retail Liquor Licenses Based on Community Resolutions

Applicable Licenses:

FL-3 (Foreign Liquor Retail - Form E)
FL-4 (Foreign Liquor Retail)

CL-3 (Country Liquor Retail)

What Changed:

This circular establishes or clarifies the procedure for termination of retail liquor licenses when either:

A Gram Sabha (village assembly) passes a resolution requesting closure of liquor shops in their jurisdiction, OR
Electors/residents of a Municipal Council or Municipal Corporation ward submit a representation/petition requesting closure of liquor shops in their ward

This appears to implement or operationalize community-based regulatory powers, allowing local democratic bodies and residents to initiate closure of liquor retail outlets in their areas through formal resolutions or petitions.

Key Details:

Applies to retail sale licenses for both foreign and country liquor
Recognizes Gram Sabha resolutions as basis for license termination in rural areas
Recognizes elector representations in urban areas (Municipal Council/Corporation wards)
Likely prescribes verification procedures and conditions under which Commissioner State Excise must act on such community requests
Part of broader regulatory framework under Maharashtra Prohibition Act provisions allowing community participation in liquor policy

Authority: Commissioner, State Excise, Maharashtra

Note: Complete procedural details, threshold requirements (e.g., minimum number of electors), timelines, and appeal provisions would be contained in the full text of the circular, which is not provided in the extract above.

# Maharashtra दारूबंदी कायदा - Community Resolution द्वारा Retail License बंद करणे

थोडक्यात: Gram Sabha किंवा Municipal वार्डातील रहिवासीं के resolution/petition मिळल्यास दारू shop चे license बंद करता येते.

---

## **हे काय आहे?**

Maharashtra च्या दारूबंदी कायदा अंतर्गत एक नियम आहे की:

**ग्रामीण भागात:** जर Gram Sabha (गाव सभा) resolution पास करे आणि गावातील दारू shop बंद करण्याची मागणी करे, तर State Excise Commissioner हे shop चे license बंद करू शकतात.

**शहरातील भागात:** जर Municipal Council किंवा Municipal Corporation च्या कोणत्याही वार्डातील रहिवासी (electors) याचिका दाखल करून दारू shop बंद करण्याची मागणी करत, तर license बंद करता येते.

---

## **कोणती दारू shops वर लागू होते?**

- **FL-3 & FL-4:** Foreign Liquor retail shops
- **CL-3:** Country Liquor retail shops

(Wholesale किंवा manufacturing licenses वर नाही — फक्त retail वर)

---

## **व्यावहारिक उदाहरण:**

गावातील Gram Sabha meeting मध्ये गाव मंडळी vote करून "आमच्या गावात दारू shop नसावा" असा resolution पास करते, तर Excise Department हे license cancel करू शकते.
