The stock, also comprising wine and beer, is stored at warehouses as it could not be sold under <keyword id="570373" type="General" weightage="20" keywordseo="excise-policy" source="Orion">Excise Policy</keyword> 2021-22 that finally ended on August 31, they said. "There are over 35 lakh bottles of various spirit brands are registered under the current excise policy. Such brands can be sold through corporation vends," a senior government officer said. The remaining stock belongs to brands that are yet to be registered under the prevailing excise policy. "It is being explored how to dispose this stock of unregistered brands. One option is to register the brands concerned and sell them through the liquor vends. Another option is to destroy them," the officer said. Officials, however, said the government may allow sale of the unregistered brand bottles instead of destroying them. They cited an example from 2019 wherein the excise department had prepared a proposal seeking permission to sell liquor bottles seized during raids at 25 per cent less than their actual price, after proper testing, instead of destroying them. The Excise Policy 2021-22 that came into being from November 17, 2021, was withdrawn by the Delhi government following recommendation of a CBI probe into alleged irregularities in its implementation. The government then reverted to the excise policy that was in operation before November 17, 2021, by running liquor vends through its four undertakings- DTTDC, DSIIDC, <keyword id="1603215" type="General" weightage="80" keywordseo="dscsc" source="Orion">DSCSC</keyword> and DCCWS- from September 1 this year. Officials said 518 licenses have been issued for liquor vends to the four corporations so far. A total of 406 vends have opened and 400 of them have started placing purchase orders for stock. The excise department has also registered nearly 650 brands of liquor. Officials said the left over stock could be sold at prices consistent with the current excise policy. A part of the stock comprises beer bottles of unregistered brands, that will be needed to be disposed soon as they can not be stored for long without proper refrigeration facilities, the officials added.

But, more than the Paris’ iconic monument, the pylon structure was meant to <a href="https://www.indiatoday.in/education-today/gk-current-affairs/story/signature-bridge-delhi-facts-arvind-kejriwal-1382670-2018-11-05">emulate</a> the gesture of saying ‘Namaste’, which is a customary Hindu greeting. <div type="javascript" title="Custom" contenttype="Text"><cdata><![CDATA[

 The ‘Signature Bridge’ stretches across the city’s main river, the Yamuna, connecting the eastern end of the city to the western end. The aim is to decongest the roads and help daily commuters that usually have to endure arduous traffic jams. In fact, the journey from the outskirts of the city to the centre normally takes 45 minutes. But, with the bridge, the Indian government is claiming that the transit time will likely be cut down to just 10 minutes instead. Moreover, the bridge would save on the fuel consumption and help contain the capital’s abysmal <a href="https://www.businessinsider.in/clean-air-week-india-to-deploy-emergency-measures-for-controlling-air-pollution/articleshow/66446663.cms">air quality.</a> But, in its likeness to the Eiffel Tower, there’s a glass box on top of the bridge at 154 meters that serves as the viewing gallery. There are four elevators that can bring people up to box, which in turn, can support up to 50 visitors at one time. Unfortunately, the viewing gallery hasn’t quite been completed yet, which is why the Delhi Tourism and Transport Development Corporation (DTTDC) will close the bridge for a couple of hours (11 PM to 5AM) for a month following Diwali, one of India’s most iconic Hindu festivals. Even if you can’t go up to the gallery, there are designated selfie spots to stop and pose for pictures along the 575-meter bridge. Creating a ‘civil engineering spectacle’ Inaugurated by the city’s Chief Minister (CM) and Deputy CM, Arvind Kejriwal and <keyword id="6354681" type="PERSON" weightage="20" keywordseo="manish-sisodia">Manish Sisodia</keyword>, the ‘<a href="https://www.hindustantimes.com/delhi-news/delhi-s-eiffel-tower-signature-bridge-over-yamuna-inaugurated/story-e0kdeOLcKSoCH18mu6OIlN.html">civil engineering spectacle</a>’ was originally meant to launch fourteen years ago. That’s an unreasonable amount of time even taking into consideration that infrastructure projects don’t normally run on dedicated deadlines in India. It took <a href="https://www.hindustantimes.com/delhi-news/delhi-s-signature-bridge-opens-for-public-today-after-controversial-inauguration/story-ceCTpfAsoQg9VAetmULYlJ.html">₹15.18 billion</a> to finally open the bridge to the public with Kejriwal claiming that Delhi’s newest tourist spot would attract, not only local but international visitors. He added that the Signature Bridge will be at par with the Qutub Minar and India Gate with respect to its popularity. The new landmark is already twice the height of the former.
