Should all Pubs gets banned in all over India?

[rahul_parab2006]

Karnataka CM Yediyurappa and Sri Ram Sene chief Pramod Muthalik have both said that they would not 'allow' the pub culture to grow in their state.

It all started with a hysterical fringe group attacking a pub but now politicians too are singing the conservative refrain. Is this really a modernism vs tradition debate?

What your say guyz? Pubs are really a danger to the Indian culture? Will it deteriorate the quality of Indian culture???

Should all Pubs gets banned in all over India?

[jithaster]

there should be some regulations to control

[marquais_v]

SIMPLY BANNING PUBS IS UTTER WASTE.BUT I BELIVE THE PEOPLE WHO GO TO PUBS MUST BE AWARE OF SOCIAL MANNERISM WITHOUT VULGARISM WOULD BE GOOD ENOUGH TO GENERAL PUBLIC AND THEMSELVES.:SugarwareZ-286:

Banning pubs..will not help.. it depends on an individual...going to pub n enjoyng without hampering our culture can be done...n who are these sena people to judge others...y r they prejudiced for girls...i think these people needs to be given some lessons of manners & they should really learn how to treat women.. our indian culture has it... right,,..,

i agree wid him....simply banning a pub will not help..ppl shud b taught hw to behave n shud know how to respect their cultures

[yummy1984]

i think organizations like Ram Sena should ban ,as all these outfits who take laws into their hands and do whatever they want in the name of religion. If they have some problems, do talk to the people, educate them and in certain cases go for the leagal system. But definetely no 'Gunda Gardi'. We are all in a civilized world an't we , and not in jungles. And please do not politicise these issues to take an advantage....

[ClubZone]

Control is good but I guess it helps refresh your mind and soul

[rinpar]

There should be a resonable limit applied to maybe timings and functioning of these pubs but not to be completely banned

[deepakraam]

I don't think pubs must be banned.Ppl going to pubs are not kids and they very well know where they are going and what they are doing.It is upto to the individual to takecare of them.But whatever has happened to the girls are absolute atrocity against girls and noway pardonable.So I don't think we should ban the pubs.All regulations we so far are only in papers and I don't see any rules/regulations being implemented in spirits.We don't want one more regulation in paper.Better let the pub exists and let us keep these vandal elements from the society.

[madronny]

no... pubs must not be banned.. we leave in a democracy... we have our freedom to do want we want to do...

[ed1968]

i think pubs should not be banned but dance bars and high end should be banned in high social areas or lvl of restriction should be enabled over them

[yummy1984]

i agree to this.. people going to pibs are not kid..they are grown enough to know what is good n what is not... n let me ask 1 thing..is alochol has a diiferent effect on men & different on women? definately not...then y to have a ban on gils...why women should be burdened with morality n indian culture.. n what these ram sena guys have shown indian cultute...ahhh... give us a break.. yaar Girls, aged between 19 and 20, were grabbed by their hair, thrown on the ground, molested, slapped and beaten by a group of young men, claiming allegiance to Hindu culture and accusing the girls of dancing with boys at the bar. ...please dont try to moral guru of India.....plzz...

[kartikeya.rathore]

Some are saying pubs will ruin our culture, I am just wondering, these are the same people who are hitting people (including women) mercilessly. Is that our culture? First up these people are the ones who are ruining our culture.

This certainly is not a culture debate at all..its a debate of whether any one of us will let some dictate terms to us.

In the end there are terrorists who try and dictate terms to us...and then there are these people...fundamentally there may be no difference between these two classes!! Both should be highly condemned and not allowed to grow!!

[jyoti.usbt]

I don't think banning of pubs will be the right solution for the recent misbehaviour that happened in one pub of the state of karnataka. Some anti-social elements are present everywhere in every part of the country..so we cann't ban the use of any place,any item just because of its misuse, misbehaviour,some vulgar activities etc.....Instead we all should come together with our govt. to challenge these anti-social elements and some strict rules & laws should therefore beframed up in our constitution & jurisdiction to deal with these people who tried to deteriorate our beautiful culture..

[Upasu_t]

nobody has to right to tell ny1 what to do...if pubs are to be banned , the liquor and wine shops should also be banned..but nobody will ban these liqour shops coz our country gets revenue from it..

[bhatia.manjot16]

government should make new set of rules keeping in mind those working in pubs.

[mayank.ri]

well.. i tink pubs shud not be banned.... bt yes..upto 11 pm restriction is gud...
y cnt v hav pubs open at afternoon..

[chirag5]

Ofcourse not. We are into globalization and how cau you talk of closing pubs and all. We are accepting new culture slowly. Is it possible to totally ban alcohol? No! then how cau u ban pubs???

[adi_628]

First of all, no single entitiy hast he right to assume the responsibility to 'protect' their culture. Each individual has the right only for himself or herself, and is free to conduct himself the way he/ she chooses (AS LONG AS HE/SHE DOES NOT DIRECTLY HARM SOMEONE ELSE).
Banning pubs..that would just set an example of how little self-control we possess. Pubs should not banned. The people who think themselves to be 'heroes' and 'protectors' (read hypocritical chauvinists) should be banned.
If a person gets drunk in a pub, and harms someone else, punish him/her. Rightly so.
Instead of banning facilities, and moving backwards, we have to move forward, and not make such issues out of small things. Pubs are there. So what. They're there all over the world. It is upon the people to use them responsibly. It is high time that 'parenting' is stopped.

[sunny_ghuryani]

Dude thats so freaking strange. Men hold each others pinkies and walk on the street and that isn't against Indian culture (apparently). We should stop being so hypocritical and divert our energies to more productive things.

[girish_bvrit]

pubs should not be banned but there should be some restrictions

[parthtrivedi]

Banning a pub might increase the rage in the youngsters and since everyone is their own master...its upto any individual to go to a pub or not...and publicly manhandling girls is simply unacceptable !

[23piya28]

no pubs should not be banned as these r the places where d youth can actually go n enjoy with there frds. Its a good place to hang out on weekends after a full week of tension n stress

[confused21]

banning pub culture won't help at all and y it shud be banned at all... the ppl who r criticising the pub culture are the ones who r the ones visiting it in the darkness of the night such hypocrates they are.... who d hell are they to tell us what we shud do and what we shudn't for their kind information we live in a democratic country.

[shipralal]

yes.most of them atleast.alcohol is not good for anyone.and most pubs are illegal anyways.thanxxxxxxxxx

[shwetasingh]

NO, pubs should not be banned ....its an indiviual choice at the end of the day and hence going to the pub should be left on the indiviual...We have entered into the 21st century we must keep pace with the changing enviornment .... And no one has the right to force any one and teach what is right and what is wrong .....

Ya i agree with Shweta, the pubs should not be banned. I feel the pubs are greatly for frustrated souls....pubs are a hiding place for such souls. Just imagine if the pubs will be banned, these souls will be on the road and i have no clue how they will take out their frustrations. Atleast now they are confined to the four walls of the pub.

[akashkhetpal_86]

it all depends on a person how he/ she takes the culture, i do enjoy going to dics & pubs, but on the other hand i do knw my limitations & traditions...

[sarangsk]

I think we can look at the uses of pubs either way. Pubs allow us to socialize interact with friends,collegues at personal levels, shrugg off days fatigue n all. At the same time it may start habits of alcoholisms, smoking etc that are generally considered bad in society.
Its just like FIRE. We can cook food using it use it as an ARSON.
One has to set his own requirements as well as limits then only the purposes of things like pubs can be fully utilised in right spirits.

[ruhi28]

I also agree that we live in democracy where we should let people decide on what they want to do but they should be provided with certain restictions.

[sheik arabi]

no it should not be banned......
because its a cultural improvement for our nation but it has to be done in correct way...........

No way! who are the politicians to do moral policing?

[niraj_hattangdi]

who r these ram sena's walas to decide our culture..do they even know what is right and wrong for our country...forget our country..but say themselves...are they so self immune that they dont even feel what is going on wrong in the country..why are they just trying to be so highlighted..banning pubs is not the solution of anything...and hitting girls is just an act of barbarism....if they want to protect our culture they should protect that happened in a state when a minor girl walked with a guy and she was killed..they should fight against the dowry system which is still practiced in many of the states in india..they should fight against the poverty in india..they should fight against the intermediaries who don't give the right to the farmers..leaving all these problems they are in the limelight just to ban pubs!!!!!wonderful........

[khrith]

there must be some awareness and contol for everyone.

[kamalpaad]

First the Pub goers should know the manners.......There is no smoke if there is no fire...If there was decency maintained in pubs, there would have been no indecent work by these so called brigadiers...........
Simply by banning pubs wont change the minds of those who throng these places....if required they can turn their own homes to pubs.......
Awareness must come from within......not from the external force..

[vishnuchandar]

No use of banning. If banned, people will always try to find some alternates like the one happened in Mysore Farm house. What really needed is to learn how to behave in pub.

[nikhilsondkar]

Banning pubs is definitely not the solution ....may be some pubs where people do drugs n stuff can be banned.

[samiksha_hi]

Banning pubs completely= ppl drinking in cars on the streets and other places = more squabbles+ more accidents

[bvcabc]

hey i think banning pubs is no solution
educating abt the drinking in moderation is necessaary

[prajul]

no never , we live in a democratic country wherein we have a right to choose for ourselves,instead of others imposing their ideologies.......[:llama:

[sadaf.b]

well i think ban pub is nt tht gud decision.it helps to refresh our minds.by the way the people who go to pubs are not kid they know whts gud for them
there can b sum restriction no totally ban[/B]

[gpuneetg]

No ways..its all in the mind..for what u r goin in pub..for some small group of ppl we cant change the whole country

[neha20092009]

no it should not be banned......
because its a cultural improvement for our nation but it has to be done in correct way...........

[YogeshTheDevil]

No - this is individual's right whether to enter or not into a pub or any place which does fit into his / her description of morality, ethics etc. etc.
If you start banning pubs, then next step for these goons would one day, I can have a bet, definitely be to ban existence of other religious practices - other than their own.

Pubs are of different kinds and they attract different types of age groups.. The needs of people are varied but have to be conditioned to avoid misbehaviour in the pubs...
The owners should be responsible to keep check on the activities that go on in pubs and hire bouncers and negotiators to handle tiffs.

[priyankappd]

The law prohibits any person below the age of 25 years to be employed at any bar or pub.
The offence is punishable with a fine of up to Rs.50,000 or imprisonment of three months to be levied on the outlet.
Still, nearly 55 percent of those working as service attendants in bars and restaurants are young boys and girls below the age of 25, acc to the survey.
Government should take strict action against Pubs serving minors.
They should be penalized for not abiding the law.
Government should ban bars which serve liquor to children as per the provisions of the law.
The licences of the erring establishments should be cancelled paving a way of strict enforcement. :SugarwareZ-166:
The Government is equipped with necessary laws but lacks enforcement.
Pub Culture is really destroying the Indian Culture too many families get destroyed by alcoholism

[priyankappd]

so i believe that Pubs should be banned all over India

[mba.informationtechnology]

it make sense..gud question................quite concerning though.............................it is as wrong as saying earth is at top and sky is at bottom.........Should all Pubs gets banned in all over India.............kill them who say so to do.................i will be in last to do so though....i hate violence

[mba.informationtechnology]

Should all Pubs gets banned in all over India..............hw do i knw...........i dnt go to pubs.................

[kapil21682]

[suaveboy]
