Congress has strongly opposed tenders invited for
three bear bars and one liquor shop at Mana-based Swami Vivekanand Airport
(SVA) and demanded instant revocation of such decision. In this connection, the
Congress members led by DCC Raipur Urban president Inderchand Dhariwal
demonstrated before the airport and submitted a memorandum to SAV station
director Anil Rai on Monday.
Dhariwal said it was unfortunate that the tenders for
bars and liquor shop had been called ignoring the principles of Swami
Vivekanand. “Besides, airport being a public place, the opening of bars and liquor
shop will only cause inconvenience to women and children,” he added.
“The government has already decided that it would not
allot liquor shops in the areas having population less than 2000. But, the
tenders for bars and liquor shop contradict its decision,” he said.
The Congmen warned of launching massive protest
movement if the tenders for bars and liquor shop would not be cancelled.
At airport, Dhariwal was accompanied by Sheikh
Shakeel, Sumit Das, Deepak Jaiswal, Prakash Ramteke, Ramesh Chandra Kumar,
Vikas Jain, Virendra Dewangan, etc.
