Chandigarh to ban short skirts in discos to 'control anti-national elements'

April 20, 2016 10:15

The Chandigarh administration has made provisions to ban short skirts in discos with an aim to 'control places of public amusement'.

The administration said that the decision has been taken as the bureaucrats find discos a breeding ground for 'anti-national' elements, CNN-News18 reported.

According to the new policy, 'scantily dressed women' or any 'indecency' could bring the shutters down at discos.

The new policy 'Controlling of Places of Public Amusement, 2016' has also curtailed the bar timings by two hours from 2 am to 12 midnight.
