What, No more scotch? India moves to ban imported goods at military shops


NEW DELHI, Oct 25 (Reuters); India has ordered its 4,000 military shops to stop buying imported goods, according to a document reviewed by Reuters, a move that could send an unwelcome signal to foreign giant liquor firms such as Diageo and Pernod Ricard.

India's defence canteens sell liquor, electronics and other goods at discounted prices to soldiers, ex-servicemen and their families.
