Mangalore, Jul 8: A group of men, said to be Bajrang Dal activists, raided a well-known hotel located on Falnir Road in the heart of the city, where what they alleged to be an obscene dance and fashion show was in progress, and disrupted it on late Saturday evening.
Elsewhere in the same hotel, top police officers were at a farewell programme for the outgoing DIG H N Satyanarayana Rao and they rushed to the scene of trouble and managed to send the trouble-makers away and restore peace.
The group alleged that an obscene dance programme called ‘Weekend' was being held on every Saturday in the said hotel and highly-priced tickets were sold. This show was held in one of the hall at the hotel. They alleged that youngsters who attended these shows got drunk and misbehaved.
Bajrang Dal activists, about 25 in number, entered the hotel soon after the show begun on Saturday, July 7. However, police personnel present at the farewell party of Western Range IGP Rao persuaded the activists not to create trouble and advised the organizers to cancel the show in the interest of law and order..
