Residents Oppose Proposed Liquor Unit in Beltarodi, Demand Reconsideration Residents of Beltarodi have raised strong objections to a proposed country liquor manufacturing unit planned for their locality, citing concerns over public safety, community disruption, and the impact on nearby educational and religious institutions. The residents approached the office of the guardian minister and Kamptee MLA Chandrashekhar Bawankule, as well as other officials, to register their grievances. In a memorandum submitted at Bawankule's office, they requested complete details and official documents regarding the project, emphasizing their unified stance against the establishment of such a facility in a predominantly residential area. The community highlighted that the locality is home to hundreds of families, including young children, women, and senior citizens. They argued that the proximity of a liquor unit to residential societies would negatively affect the neighborhood's character and compromise public safety. Residents warned that the presence of a liquor facility could attract antisocial elements and encourage illegal activities in the vicinity. They also pointed out that several educational and religious institutions are located near the proposed site, further intensifying their concerns. Priya Manpiya, a resident, informed The Times of India that the community learned about the proposed liquor unit after observing construction activity in their area. Officials from the minister's office directed them to approach the collector, with plans to meet him on Monday to urge immediate action. The memorandum further noted fears that the facility could lead to altercations and other nuisances, particularly during evening and night hours.#the_times_of_india #chandrashekhar_bawankule #beltarodi #priya_manpiya #besa_pipla_nagar_panchyat
