Approximately 7,000 bottles of unsold liquor were destroyed using a bulldozer, valued at nearly 8 crores in Ghaziabad, stored in a warehouse in the Morad area on National Highway 9. The destruction was carried out in the presence of officials from the Excise Department.

Providing details about the entire incident, Excise Officer Rakesh Kumar Singh explained that this liquor was quite old, and at the time it arrived, the duty was not deposited. Although the duty was later paid, the liquor remained unsold. Therefore, for technical reasons, this liquor is being destroyed to prevent any misuse.
