Shameful incidents in Gurgaon - yet again!!

The stunning episode reported from a night club in Gurgaon in which a man crushed a drink flask on a lady's head highlights vital parts of our social and social life.

The way that this happened in a city that has been known for its pubs and night life recommends that its society has altered to a degree since the Hooda Govt. came to power in Haryana. Few will overlook that episode of 2012 in which VHP goons had whipped youthful men and ladies at a parlor bar in Noida.

But there is more than meets the eye to this event, since similar incidents have been reported from nearby areas, including the national capital and the Noida region.

What such cases make clear is the disdain that anti-social components nurture for the law, in particular those who are overall joined, as appears the case in Gurgaon.

At a deeper level, the episode is a remark on our patriarchal society where a lady at a night club still gets looked down upon, with men feeling allowed to bring emancipation s with her, as happened in the Gurgaon night club. It too highlights our flop to develop a legitimate drinking society in which firewater is not viewed as a license for misbehavior or wrongdoing.
