I'm quite sure this will be one of the comments which will not appear on your blog. Nevertheless I would like to express my views. <BR/>First of all the youngsters (as you choose to call them) are all adults, at least none of the women who were beaten up by the Ra(van) Sene in Mangalore appeared to be below 18 and all of them admitted to having gone there of their own accord. We don't need moral policing what we need are better amenities and education, why don't you and your government along with the help of your supporters focus more on these things. As adults in a democracy, we can decide what is right and wrong, we don't a big brother behind our backs,with a whip in hand telling us that everything western is bad. Let us not even talk about the purity of the Indian culture - the way women used to dress or about the kind of lifestyle that was led. There are many ways of looking at things and I'm sure my way of looking at it would incense you no doubt. So, my request to you and the likes of the sene are to let people be... if you have a problem with pubs or drinking, you ensure that u don't do it. If you want to monitor women's clothing, monitor the clothing of women in your houses.. and allow the rest of us to live in peace..thank u and jai sri ram!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-271219034107113159.post-80605897385498474752009-02-10T13:16:00.000+05:302009-02-10T13:16:00.000+05:30Its true that "PUBS" have come from the WEST and I...Its true that "PUBS" have come from the WEST and Indian Youth spend lot of their time trying to ape the WEST.Influence of alcohol and loss of the "INDIANESS" is a matter of serious concern.BUT!!
