Mumbai, July 19 (IANS) As football fever grips the maximum city, the Maharashtra government has allowed eateries, restaurants, and hotels across the state, including Mumbai, to remain open until 4 AM.

The move comes on the back of the formal request put in by the National Restaurant Association of India (NRAI), which sought extended operating hours for restaurants, bars, and hotels till the wee hours of July 20 morning, to facilitate fans assembling there for watching the LIVE telecast of the FIFA World Cup and root for their favourite team.
