Soon  in India too, we may not see the alcohol shops on state and National highways across India.

Coincidently, 26th June, 2011 ( International Day against Drug abuse & Illicit trafficking)  on Parliament Television, I suggested that there should be recreational centers instead of liquor shops on highways for truckers.

My co-panelist from law background  were not happy with the suggestion. Now it seems to become reality. There is a long way to go since it is state subject. Local NGOs like Indian Temperance Youth Federation (ITYF) state chapters need to take it further with other pressure groups.
