04 January 2010 The PROHIBITION AND EXCISE DEPARTMENT deals with regulation of possession, production, manufacture, Selling, buying, and transport of liquor. It plays the dual role of enforcing prohibition of country liquor (Arrack) and procuring revenue through regulation of Indian Made Liquor and Toddy. The Department, along with other State and Central Government agencies also enforces the law relating to Narcotics and Psycho substances. Excise Revenue is the second largest source for the State Government.
