A) consumption of alcohol cannot be proved.
B) he shall be sent to hospital for medical examination.
C) it shall be presumed that he has consumed liquor and charged accordingly.
D) it is right to use reasonable force for compliance.
Under Section 25 of the Mizoram Liquor Prohibition (MLP) Act 2019, the law provides a legal presumption regarding the refusal to undergo a breathalyzer test. Specifically, if a person resists or refuses to provide a sample for the breathalyzer test when requested by an authorized officer, the law presumes that the person has consumed liquor. This is a 'presumption of fact' designed to prevent individuals from evading the law by simply refusing the test. Therefore, option (c) is the correct legal consequence. Option (a) is incorrect because the law creates a presumption against the person. Option (b) is not the primary legal consequence defined in Section 25 for resistance. Option (d), while reasonable force may be used in some police contexts, is not the specific legal presumption established by Section 25 of this Act.

B) the Assistant Commissioner of Excise and Narcotics
C) the Commissioner Secretary of Excise and Narcotics
D) the Commissioner, with the approval of the state government
Under the Mizoram Liquor Prohibition (MLP) Act 2019, the regulation of liquor is strictly controlled. While the Commissioner of Excise and Narcotics is the primary administrative authority for excise matters, the granting of licenses for the manufacture, sale, and supply of local fruit beer is a significant regulatory action that requires higher-level authorization. According to the statutory framework of the Act and the associated rules, the Commissioner does not have the unilateral power to grant such licenses; instead, the Commissioner must obtain the formal approval of the State Government to issue these licenses. Options (a), (b), and (c) are incorrect because they either assign the power to a subordinate officer or omit the mandatory requirement of State Government approval.
