# Supriya Sule seeks closure of liquor shop near Pune school 2026-08-18T05:38:16+00:00 | Governance | Indian Opinion Desk Corroboration: 1 independent outlet NCP-SP MP Supriya Sule has urged the Pune district collector and the Maharashtra State Excise Department to shut a liquor shop near Blue Ridge Public School in Hinjawadi. In a post on X, Sule said the shop named 'Wine Club' was coming up inside The Groves Housing Society, part of Blue Ridge Township, and that residents had complained. Sule called the opening of a liquor shop in a dense residential area next to a school "completely wrong and deeply concerning." She said it could harm schoolchildren and create safety issues for women and senior citizens. She also questioned the shop's permissions, saying it had not obtained the mandatory No Objection Certificate from the housing society or the local Gram Sabha. "Giving permission to such establishments in a residential area by flouting rules is inappropriate," Sule wrote. She demanded a thorough investigation and immediate orders to close the shop. The area falls in her Baramati Lok Sabha constituency. ## Coverage - freepressjournal.in This story was synthesised by AI from the source linked above.
