This Act amends the prohibition laws in Kerala to unify and update the legal framework governing alcohol and related activities. It changes the name of the principal Act, extends its reach to the entire state, and removes outdated references to specific historical laws. The legislation strengthens penalties for violations by increasing fines and prison terms, including mandatory minimum sentences for repeat offenses. Additionally, it establishes a requirement for the Legislative Assembly to approve draft notifications before they are issued, ensuring greater legislative oversight over the implementation of these regulations.
