This is not the first time it is happening !4 years ago a similar incident had taken place in the city when certain anti social elements calling themselves workers belonging to Hindu organisations thrashed college girls and chased them out of a well known pub right in the middle of the day.It is happened again today evening !...This is one more incident of moral policing by the dangerous anti social elements ! :blink:

I have gone through the article.....another incident shoot by camera this month!!!!!!!
Now am thinking, are women safe in homes and resorts where tight security is there????? It's not a public place or a crowded place. Isn't it?
I agree. There is inadequate security in resorts. Here the case is of Hindu Talibization. The miscreants do not want women to go to pubs and they want to stay home in strictly old fashion.
Am lucky enough to say, I am from a state where a lady doesn't need a parada while she see a man, which is not at all applicable in many rural places of north India. Isn't it? (Am not saying about muslims)
In fact, nobody- even Muslim women need not observe complete Purdah all time. This is more a matter of decorum and dress code. Wearing Dupatta on head or wearing a veil(Burqua) does not restrict women as such. They still freely move and talk. It is not necessary to cover face with mask all time.
What elders object is to wearing Jeans and talking loudly in unabashed manner. There is need to adopt a middle way. Elders need not be too strict and boys/girls should maintain some decorum as desired.
Last year a Hindu family from Gorakhpur, UP, came to Kodungalloor for infertility treatment. I was really surprised ....... that girl told me that girls after marriage can wear sari only, even at home. Can never go in front of visitors even in Churidars. Also, they should cover their head with 'Pallu', before elder males.
So, she was saying, she is really surprised to see Kerala ladies like this...only exception is Muslim.
When her mother-in-law came, I could see her full time under pallu since this girl's father was also there.
Then only i could understand, this parda system is applicable for both Hindus and Muslims. Christians put parda, but at prayer time only.
I am a Punjabi and Purdah is not strict. But in U.P., elders also suffer because of Purdah. They have to stay in a separate room or sit outside the house during day. If they enter, they must making coughing sound so that the daughter in law may cover her head. I daily see that some elders, my neighbors sit outside house on a cot even though there is comfort of cooler and ceiling fan inside. This type of Purdah gives more freedom to the young couple and really puts elders to inconvenience.

Am really shocked hearing such a custom still exists in our independent India :ohmy: :ohmy: :ohmy: :angry: :angry: :angry:
In our families, we all together watch TV, talk together. Father-in-laws often help daughter-in-laws in kitchen.

I think even Rajasthni's are very conservative and still have the purdah system for women ! It is only the south Indian states that do not follow any such system. In fact Karnataka is quite forward that way with absolutely no restrictions of any kind for women..
What about Muslims Ushaji???
Some years before, parda system was not strict for Muslims. They won't wear it even for their marriage receptions. But now, it's made strict here, though no need to cover their face. I have seen them in full sleeve churidar tops only
Muslims of course have their own rules according to their Shariya regulations ...But I dont see too many Burkha clad women here in my city these days like it was before...
This is a really shocking news.
These men should be punished.
Thankfully most of them have been caught and the state gvt has gone all out to see that they don't get off easily just so that it is a lesson to all anti social elements...
Can they assure such incidents won't happen again? :evil: :evil: :evil:
Now a days women are also becoming worst. There is no need to goto pub at mid nights.
This incident is about a resort yaar, where they stayed...not a public place.
Of course, there will be no issue if women accept what the Hindu Talibans or Khap Panchayats want. The trouble begins when women assert themselves by wearing Jeans, drinking whiskey and carrying mobile phones etc.
If women stay home and accept orthodox views, let them. But women have certainly a right to live as they like on equal footing with men. It may be bad to go to Pub at mid night but if that is good for men, why bad only for women.

In this incident they were not in a pub,it was a resort owned by one of the girls parents and the parents of most of those youngsters were aware that they were celebrating a birthday party there, so nobody had any business to go in without permission and thrash people ...thankfully the whole city is united in condemning this attack except a small number of supporters of right wing hindus who went on a demonstration yesterday.however,half way through apparently some ladies organisation s and hijdhas stopped them and chased them lol :P so that was the end of the protest.In fact all colleges were closed day before yesterday to show support to the youngsters :huh:

Let it be a good lesson for such people.
Let them think twice before getting into anyone's personal freedom and rights.
:angry: :angry: :angry:
Many people in India think that it is their personal business to monitor people around them and this is considered normal by many, and when such behavior goes to extremities this is what happens.And the best part is the fellows who attacked were supposedly totally drunk and they were objecting to someone who was in a resort and enjoying a birthday party ...what a contradiction !
Let us again revert to the talibanization at mangalore. The victim girls are being again victimized in their college.

The Talibani attitude is not limited just to some groups. This is deep rooted in karnataka. This is the price for installing a BJP government.

I am not aware of Karnataka politics. So, I can make no comments. My comments are relevant only in context of the recent misbehavior in the resort.

Yes I understand that :) , but even when you take at the national level things are just the same, we have very few options !
