Can Advocates drink liquor in India?

 


There is no uniformity of law regarding sale and consumption of alcohol in India.  The laws varies from state to state. Some state have liquor ban in India such as Bihar, Gujarat, Lakshadweep, Nagaland etc. 


Anyone can drink liquor who has drinking licence. There is no discrimination on anyone to drink liquor in India. Advocates also can drink liquor in their home, wine shop, pubs, permit room. Any person of legal age and having licence can consume liquor, beer, wine. No discrimination on the ground of profession.


In Maharashtra to drink liquor you need a permit. To get permit one can apply to the excise department. The drinking licence is issued for a day, a year and lifetime.


The Bombay Prohibition Act, 1949 deals with sale, possession and drinking age. The person who is 25 years old and has permit can legally drink liquor in private space, bars, permit room, in pubs etc. To drink beer the age is 21 years. 


Drink in public space is not allowed. The person who is drunk and driving can be arrested and punished under the Motor Vehicle Act, 1988.

Does caste change after marriage?

* A woman’s caste does not change after marriage. Caste is determined by birth. By default , the father’s caste is the child's caste. Marriage does not alter the caste of someone. So, OBC lady cannot become a SC just because she married a SC male. However, the children of them will belong to SC as the father is a SC. However, there are certain exception in case child of such wedlock ( father UR but mother Reserved) who is raised in reserved community and separated or absence of father presence, he may be treated reserved as per mother caste. There are many exceptions : 1. When orphan child is adopted by mother of reserve caste. 2. When generation of Indian father of reserve caste live outside of India ( with no caste system) and when grand children return to India which caste they will be.

What is the difference between 'sin' and 'offence' ?

Sin is an immoral, bad, unethical and unlawful thing in the eyes of society.  Offence is an unlawful and illegal act or omission which is punishable by the law.  Adultery, prostitution, sex before marriage, eating animals these some of things are considered as sin in the Indian society. But sin is not punishable by the law. The man who commits sin is responsible to the god.  Murder, rape, bigamy, theft, violation of traffic rules these are the some offences. These offences are punishable by law with capital punishment, imprisonment or by fine.  Sin is not a crime. The role of police and judge starts when sin becomes an offence. When it's a sin, it can not be questioned. Police and judge can not take cognizance of sin. A person responsible for sin is answerable before the Supreme Lord of the universe on the day of judgement.
