A major change has been made regarding the sale of liquor in Thiruvananthapuram. BEVCO has issued a new instruction, under which now liquor will be available even after 9 pm.
However, this facility will be available only to those who queue up before the specified time. Till now, Baveco shops were open only from 10 am to 9 pm, but under the new orders, the shops will remain open till the last customer is served.
Outlet managers get new orders
Bavco has informed all its outlet managers to implement this new system. According to the orders, if any customer is standing in queues outside any shop even after 9 pm, then they will be given liquor. The purpose of this change is to solve the problem of those customers who could not buy liquor due to not reaching the shop on time.
The new rule will be applicable to all Bavco outlets.
This new instruction will be applicable to Bavco outlets across the state of Kerala. The special thing is that this rule will be applicable not only to regular liquor sales centers but also to premium outlets. However, the time limit for opening liquor shops has not been formally extended, rather this system has been implemented only for customers standing in queues.
Employees’ demands still not met
The labor unions had demanded an increase in incentive amount for employees working at liquor shops, but BAVCO has not taken any decision on this yet. Despite this, this change in working hours is being considered as a relief measure for the customers. According to BAVCO, this step has been taken due to increasing complaints that many customers are not buying liquor due to the expiry of the deadline.
