Court he has made it a habit to avoid coming to the court citing some or other reasons. This had
caused undue delay in closing down the liquor shops along the national and state highways.
His arguments were in favour of the liquors shops in the case for closure of liquor shops along state
and national highways. Whereas the fact is that liquor shops were opened alongside the national
highways, he had argued that the national highways are running through commercial areas where
there are liquor shops and hence it is not possible to close down the liquor shops. In this circumstances
his stand to argue for Kerala bar owners association confirms the doubts and fears about his integrity.
In this situation giving the responsibility of taking a decision on closure of liquor shops alongside
national and state highways to Rohatgi is like keeping a cat to protect milk. Hence he should be
immediately relived from this responsibility as the representative of the Union government. The
Government of India should request the court to appoint an alternative when the case comes for
hearing in this month end. The Government should take an early decision on closure of liquor shops
along state and national highways.
