Speaking at the programme, Advocate Y Ratankumar, president, CADA said that Manipur has not been able to check the increasing consumption of alcohol and drugs due to inefficiency of the State Government.

There is wide availability of liquor in Manipur though the State Government has declared the State as a dry State, Ratankumar said.
