Mangaluru: The leaders of Vishwa Hindu Parishad and the Bajarang Dal, on Wednesday submitted a memorandum to Mangaluru City Police Commissioner opposing the DJ parties and liquor parties in the city slated to be held on New Year’s eve.
The memorandum, which has also been addressed to the Superintendent of Excise Department of Mangaluru reads: It has come to our notice that DJ parties where liquor will be served have been planned in various hotels, pubs and public places in the city on December 31. The new year celebration is a western culture, and we condemn the same.
The organizations, linking these parties to ‘love jihad’, drug and sex mafia, said that girls are misused and pressurised to take part in such parties. Hence the police department should not allow these events, urged the organisations adding that pubs, bars and hotels must be closed by 11pm.
