Gurugram bars now liable for drunk drivers, says top cop, calls out Thar owners
Bars in Haryana's Gurugram will be liable if their customers are caught driving drunk, according to a new police directive which invokes Section 168 of BNSS.
The notices are reportedly being sent to bars and restaurants directing them to ensure that no customer drives back home in inebriated condition.
Notices had already been sent out to establishments across the city asking them to deploy staff who will monitor the customers and arrange cabs or drivers for customers if they see them intoxicated and drinking for long, the Times of India quoted Police commissioner Vikas Kumar Arora as saying.
