In Indian university, at large to drink to excess (7)
I believe the answer is:
indulge
'in indian university at large to drink to excess' is the definition.
I can't judge whether this definition defines the answer.
'at large to drink to excess' is the wordplay.
'at' becomes 'in' (synonymous in some cases - eg at school, in school).
'large' becomes 'lg' (abbreviation).
'to drink' is an insertion indicator.
'to excess' becomes 'due' (I can't justify this - if you can you should believe this answer much more).
'lg' going inside 'due' is 'dulge'.
'in'+'dulge'='INDULGE'
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for indulge that I've seen before include "Favour, gratify" , "Satisfy (a desire)" , "Gratify (an appetite)" , "Coddle while eluding." , "Mollycoddle -- eluding (anag)" .)
