Delhi govt allows home delivery of liquor, Twitter witnesses meme fest

However, only those with an L-13 licence can deliver the Indian and as well as foreign-made liquors to consumers at home.

"The licensee shall make delivery of liquor at the residences only if the order is received through the mobile app or online web portal and no delivery shall be made to any hostel, office and institution," the Delhi government said in a notification.

Buyers can place the order using mobile phone apps and websites. The details of the apps and online portals are yet to be released.
