The Supreme Court vodka in tetra packs case has raised concern over alcohol being sold in tetra packs and sachets. The Supreme Court vodka in tetra packs matter came before the court after a petition challenged such packaging styles.
The petition says liquor sold in carton-style packs can look like juice boxes. It argues this can confuse buyers and may attract underage users. It also raises concern about easier concealment in public places.
The Supreme Court issued notices to the Centre and state authorities. It asked them to respond to the claims in the petition. The court noted that such packaging may mislead consumers.
The petition also seeks a clear national rule for alcohol packaging. It wants liquor sold only in clearly marked bottles. It says this will improve safety and reduce misuse.
