The Haryana government revised its Excise Act, decreasing the legal age of drinking, purchase, and sale of liquor from 25 to 21 years in the state.
A few months ago in the National Capital Territory of Delhi, the drinking age limit has also been reduced to 21 years.
The Haryana Excise (Amendment) Bill, 2021, has approved to lower the minimum age limit from 25 years to 21 years, as specified in Sections 27, 29, 30, and 62 of the Haryana Excise Act, 1914.
