State Legislative Brief BIHAR The Bihar Prohibition and Excise (Amendment) Bill, 2022 Key Features The Act specifies the punishment for consumption of liquor. The Bill instead empowers the state government to prescribe certain penalties for this category of offences. Offences under the Act are tried by a Sessions or Special Court. The Bill provides for trial of: (i) consumption of liquor by Executive Magistrates, and (ii) all other cases by Special Courts. Offences under the Act are non-compoundable. The Bill makes all offences compoundable. Key Issues and Analysis Conducting trials is a judicial function. Under the Bill, in cases of liquor consumption, summary trials will be conducted by Executive Magistrates. This may violate the doctrine of separation of powers. The Bill permits the state government to prescribe fines, and imprisonment (in case of repeat offenders) for the consumption of liquor. The question is whether this amounts to excessive delegation. The Bill seeks to amend the Bihar Prohibition and Excise Act, 2016. The Act enforces the complete prohibition of liquor and intoxicants in Bihar. The Bill seeks to expedite trials under the Act, and shift focus from persons consuming alcohol to illegal suppliers and traders of liquor. This analysis has been written based on the copy of the Bill circulated in advance to the Members of the Bihar Legislative Assembly.
