Whoever is found drunk or drinking in a common drinking house or is
found there present for the purpose of drinking shall, on conviction, be punished
with fine which may extend to 1[five thousand rupees]. Any person found in a
common drinking house during any drinking therein shall be presumed, until the
contrary is proved, to have been there for the purpose of drinking.
