Outfits like Sri Ram Sena and some Chief Ministers are making a big issue about pubs. While Sri Ram Sena talks about using violence to stop pub culture, it is not clear what actions the CMs are proposing to stop pub culture. Pub culture promotes drinking - that is a bad thing for sure. Apart from that, I don't think there is anything wrong about pubs. People who are against boys and girls having fun together are not in tune with the times.
The Sri Ram Senas attack pubs because they don't like boys and girls mixing. They also drag religion into the issue - they are especially against Hindu girls having any interaction with Muslim/Christian boys. They say that many young unmarried girls commit suicide because they get pregnant. They put most of the blame on Muslim/Christian boys. The sad part is that these disgusting ideas get support from none other than the Chief Minister.
The Yeddyurappas and Ashok Gehlots come to power talking about development and governance. Once they are in power they start questioning the morals of the very people who voted them to power. These politicians would not dare to talk about moral policing when they seek votes. But, everything changes when they assume power - they start behaving as if they are maharajas. It is their morals that need to be questioned.
