My take posted copied here:
Let the chaddis be offered as precious, pious gifts of love to the
misguided band of goons.
Apart from this,we should know that there is another reality in India
where display of love between people outside wedlocks are socially
banned perhaps not even otherwise and without the need of any Sene to
enforce..Same is the case of women visiting pubs,going out etc..There
needs a larger struggle against the so called culturally conforming
(unlawful)ways of moral policing
