Guwahati, April 30 -- The Kamrup Metropolitan district administration has cancelled the licence of Exoro, a popular rooftop pub in Guwahati's Bhangagarh area, for allegedly violating its permitted operating hours.

The decision was made on Wednesday, April 29, after officials found that the establishment had stayed open past the allowed closing time. According to official orders, Exoro continued operations until at least 3 am, exceeding the 12:30 am limit set under its IMFL ON licence conditions.

This action follows the emergence of video footage reportedly showing individuals linked to the recent Mathgharia road accident leaving the pub late at night shortly before the fatal incident.
