Hindutva groups raid pub party in shivamogga’s Hotel Cliff Embassy to stop it.

Bajrang Dal activists stop ‘Ladies Night’ pub party in Shivamogga’s Hotel Cliff Embassy  saying it is against Hindu culture.

Among other things, a Bajrang Dal office-bearer objected to the attire of the women at the party for consuming alcohol with DJ dances. 

B Upendran | HENB | Mangaluru | March 18, 2023:: Bajrang Dal activists stopped a pub party organised in a private hotel in Karnataka’s Shivamogga on night of March 17. Around 70 participants, a majority of them women, were told to leave the venue.

Activists of Vishwa Hindu Parishad and Bajrang Dal, under the leadership of Rajesh Gowda, gathered in front of Hotel Cliff Embassy on Kuvempu Road late in the evening to protest against the party inside. Doddapete Police reached the spot. Within a few minutes, all the women, and the men accompanying them, left the hotel. It was alleged that the ‘Ladies Night’ had arrangements of drinking alcohol and DJ dance with objectionable dress up.

“We had information about the ladies’ party in the hotel. We urged the police to stop it. However, as the event was not called off, we intervened, along with the Doddapete police, and ensured it was stopped.”

Rajesh Gowda, district convener of Bajrang Dal, told mediapersons that they had information about the women’s party (Ladies Night). “This is not part of our culture. We will not allow such events in Shivamogga because we do not want our city to become another Manipal,” he said. Manipal, another Education and Health Hub in the state has gathered its ill reputation for late night ladies parties with various objectional activities including rave  events and illicit sex trades.

He claimed that women taking part in such events is against ‘Hindu culture’. “The Bajrang Dal would not tolerate such events in Shivamogga,” he said and, among other things, objected to the attire of the women at the party.

He claimed that his organisation did not take the law into their hands, but instead informed the police, who stopped the party.

On the other hand, he hotel staff claim that both the police and Bajrang Dal activists entered the party hall and told their customers to leave.

Representatives of the hotel said that it was an event organised for female customers.

Shankar K., general manager of the hotel, said, “We wanted to organise an event on March 8 to mark International Women’s Day. We could not do that due to other engagements. So we scheduled the event for March 17. Around 70 customers had gathered. The participants were women, and a few men who had accompanied them.”

“There was nothing objectionable at the party. We don’t know why the police and the activists stopped the party,” Mr Shankar said.

But, it is divulged that the Ladies Night was organized on March 17 as ” March Madness” including “Free Shots for Ladies Till 9.30”  with “Winners Prize for the Best Dancer with DJ” and other offers, those had no connection with the dignity and purposes related to ‘Women’s Day Observation’ as claimed by the Hotel authority.

   Why the Govt concerned should ban these kinds of anti-Hindu culture? The Lok Sabha should enact a Law/Act to ban such anti-Hindu activities throughout India.
