Dear Friends,
An intersting argument is being presented our great Sharad Pawar, hon'ble agriculture minister that wine is not liquor and its just a food item.

Irrespective of tyhe merits of his argument, it certainly favours farmers and we should support this move. I know Sharad ji is trying to help more of wine industry here than farmers, but ultimately the benefits come down to grape growers also.
