The decision of the department has been taken to bring Delhi’s economy back on track. The decision is expected to improve with the loss of revenue to the state due to the lockdown. 

A major part of the revenue received by the Delhi Government is from the Excise Department, that is, from the sale of liquor. It may be known that when the liquor shops were opened for the first time after the lockdown, in less than a week, these shops received revenue of about 200 crores.
