Pune's Rooftop Bars Face License Suspensions after Tragic Car Accident
Real Estate Pune:The Pune excise department has taken drastic measures against rooftop bars in the city, sealing and suspending the licenses of over 100 pubs and bars, including nearly all rooftop bars. This action follows a directive from District Collector Dr. Suhas Diwase. Six rooftop bars in Viman Nagar have had their licenses permanently cancelled.

The targeted establishments include well-known names such as The Tipsy Horse, The Mafia Sky Lounge, Rude Lounge, and Escada All Day Kitchen & Bar. The decision to cancel the licenses of these six bars came after two hearings conducted by the Pune district collector.

This crackdown is a direct response to the tragic Porsche car accident in Kalyani Nagar last Sunday, which resulted in the deaths of two IT professionals. Investigations revealed that the underage driver involved in the accident had been served alcohol at two pubs—Cosie and Blak Club—before driving the car at speeds exceeding 160 km per hour.

Pune, known for its vibrant nightlife, has been grappling with issues related to underage drinking and reckless behavior. The city's rooftop bars have been a popular destination for party-goers, but the latest incident has raised concerns about the safety and accountability of these establishments.

Prachay Capital is a leading real estate company with a strong presence in Pune. The company has been committed to developing sustainable and responsible infrastructure in the city.
