Digital Desk
A viral video exposes illegal late-night liquor sales and open drinking at Rewa’s Jai Stambh Chowk. Local residents and advocates demand strict excise action.
A video circulating online has brought attention to alleged illegal liquor sales happening late at night in Jai Stambh Chowk. The footage shows people gathered outside a liquor shop well past the permitted hours, with some seen drinking openly on the roadside. According to locals, shops in the area officially close on time, but sales reportedly continue through side windows or back entrances. Residents say this has been happening regularly, especially in the late hours of the night. The area, known to be one of the busiest parts of the city, sees heavy crowding even after midnight. People living nearby have raised concerns about noise, arguments, and occasional fights, which disturb the peace in residential pockets. There are also complaints from commuters who pass through the area at night. Many say the presence of people drinking openly makes the surroundings uncomfortable and sometimes unsafe, especially for families and women traveling alone. Some locals have also alleged that liquor is being sold above the marked price during these late hours. Since options are limited at night, customers end up paying extra. Social activists and legal experts have questioned how such activities are continuing despite rules being in place. They have urged the authorities to take stricter action and ensure proper monitoring. Following the video, officials have said they are looking into the matter. A joint team may conduct checks in the area, and action could be taken if any violations are confirmed.
