Challenging the order passed by the 4^th respondent dated 27.03.2025 excluding CISF Personnel from the implementation of the Central Liquor Management System(CLMS), the present writ petition has been filed.

It is the contention of the petitioner that though the liquor facility is being provided to the serving and retired personnel of the Central Armed Police Forces (CAPFs), including CISF, as per the policy decision taken by the Ministry of Home Affairs(MHA). However, the communication issued by the 4^th respondent indicated that CISF shall not be included while implementing the Central Liquor Management System,(CLMS). Hence, the present writ petition has been filed.

¶30

The learned counsel appearing for the petitioner would submit that in W.P.(C) Nos. 26181 of 2024 and 3418 of 2025, the Hon’ble High Court of Kerala vide judgment dated 21.10.2025 declared that the retired CISF Personnel are entitled to purchase liquor through CLMS system from CRPF Liquor Canteens or any other liquor canteens of CAPFs. The Court, further directed the 4^th respondent/ Department of Excise, Secretariat, State of Kerala to provide the data of the retired CISF personnel to the liquor canteens of other CAPFs as
