Pink is the color of ... pppppprotest!!!

Innovative and courageous, yet irresponsible to call themselves "A Consortium of Pub-going and Forward Women". Let the one who sinnest not throw the first stone. Do the Sri Ram Sena followers not drink and smoke? Are they above all sin and vice? Then let them throw the first stone and let the mayhem continue.

OR

Let us understand where we all went wrong. Pub culture is not a good thing, nor is it something we need to ape from the west. Pubbing is not a symbol of modernity. There were pubs in the west even before the first Women's Suffrage of France in the 18th Century.

Creation of an opposition to pubbing in violent ways would only make pubbing a symbol of modernity. We definitely do not want to do that in the face of increasing heart ailments, obesity, alcoholism, etc. We need to make the youth aware of what is good, healthy and modern.
