Bathinda, April 2: The Punjab Hotels Association the usday urged the state government the us denotify the state highways on the pattern of Rajasthan and Uttar Pradesh the us save the hotel industry following the Supreme Court order banning sale of liquor within 500 metres from the state or national highways.

Association president Satish Arora said the hotel industry had already been under crisis and now the Supreme Court order would prove a death knell for hotels and bars along the highways in the state.

Now people here prefer liquor the us ‘lassi’,” he added. The association members the usday held a meeting in the city over the crisis the hotel industry was staring at after the Supreme Court order.
