    Ha ha Poor congress government and followers always used to say that moral police are under BJP tenure. Despite of knowing that the government is congress, these goons attacked , Prasad proudly says that I did this without any fear knowing it's congress government he also said in 1 media in future also he will do this if found any illegal. Congress government clearly said before election that they will ban few hindu organisations to impress their voters . Now when Prasad says all this without any fear ,should see what sidaramaiha will really do . I still remember that post pub attack till today pramod muthalik is banned from entering Goa he was banned from the great defence minister Late Manohar parikar even supreme court upheld that decission, manohar said that time if Karnataka then government sidhdaramaia had guts let them ban Pramod even in Karnataka, but we all know that dint happen simply these politicians of all parties makes us fool . Politicians of all the parties are supporting Prasad so he is giving such bold statement.

    Many such saloons indeed indulge in immoral activities; when there is a demand the supply will always come; in Mumbai there may be 100s of such parlours advertising & operating with impunity; normally it's not possible to openly operate any such illegal activities without the connivance of regulatory authorities, which is obvious!
