Report him to the cops.
Holy ( and others in Mumbai), Do you know that you need a drinking permit to purchase, consume and store alcohol? As per law in Maharashtra, it is mandatory. :haha: That it is never checked, is another matter. But I got my license made two years ago. The application form costs 1 Re and for three years the license costs Rs 75. :cantstop: Earlier you could get the license at 18, and now you can get it at 25. I am not 25 yet, and I have the license. So I don't know what happens to my license. :D This license permit thing is one of the most stupid and archaic rules around. In akshayxyz's case, if such a system is applicable in Karnataka, it is the duty of the seller to check for a drinking license of every prospective customer. As per law, he cannot sell to anyone without a license. And obviously, the kid is not going to have any such license. If you complained to a cop, the cop would rightfully punish (extort) from the wine shop guy, if the latter is not in cahoots with him.
