The state Cabinet in its recent meeting decided to allow sale of IMFL from the existing country liquor shops which was criticised by the members of ruling as well as Opposition parties on the ground that the BJP had promised in its manifesto not to open any new liquor shop in the state.
"We have taken the decision to allow sale of foreign liquor from the country liquor shops after applying mind on the issue. However, now we have decided to reconsider the decision after hearing our heart's voice," Chouhan told reporters in the state Assembly's press room.
