Mangaluru: VHP Mahila Pramukh Asha Jagadish on Tuesday threatened that attacks on pubs might recur if restrictions not imposed on the live band, lady's bar, pubs and massage centers in the city.
Speaking at a press conference here, she said "We are not anti-music. But, we oppose extravagant dance. In many parts of the city, live band and lady’s bars have come up. They must be restricted.
VHP District President Jagadish Shenava said that Ladies Bar, Live band, Pubs and Massage Centers have been permitted in Lalbagh, Hampankatta, Pumpwell and other areas of the city. Due to this, many children may miss the right way. Prostitution is also made possible there. Young people are also at risk of choosing wrong paths. “The district administration and the police department must cancel their permissions. Otherwise, massive protests will be held,” he warned.
