In Indore, a disturbing case surfaced during Navratri. A well-known cafe had permission for Garba only on one day. Instead of following the rules, the place turned the event into several days of loud parties that drew wide criticism.
Reports mention alcohol, weed, and other drugs being used at the venue. Private rooms were open, and many youngsters attended. Police stepped in later to bring the situation under control.
Navratri is about devotion, fasting, and eating satwik food. Drinking or using drugs during this sacred period disrespects the spirit of the festival and goes against Hindu culture. It lowers the value and purity of our traditions.
Enjoying with friends and family is fine, but Navratri should not be spoiled. The whole year is available for parties, while this festival should remain special for faith and culture.
Authorities must act strongly against cafes that allow such behaviour. Patrolling should be strict, and anyone caught drunk must face jail for a day or two or pay a fine.
Families too must guide children about the meaning of rituals. Parents should keep an eye on them to stop such incidents from repeating. This will also make police work more effective.
Modern lifestyles are acceptable, but respect for culture is essential. Organisers should play only devotional music. Youngsters should remember Garba is for Mata Rani and celebrate it with faith, not misuse it.
