OK Madam!

It was all for fun only! You are not against it per se!

Even without all this the lovers are having a field day in the parks of Delhi ...I had gone with my family to a park on a week end (not Valentines day)...Found couples cuddling, in tight embrace...We had to make a hasty retreat!

Do they require another exclusive day to show affection!

It will not gain popularity because these activities might be in their daily routine!! :clock:

St. Valentine, I understand, was a (christian) priest who was executed on 14th. February 269 A.D. It was the rule of Claudius, who promulgated a royal edict that no roman soldier should marry (and raise a family), because the emperor felt that a soldier with a family was less brave as compared to another without a family. Valentine felt that this decree would lead to national disaster and continued his marital life as a form of protest, for which he was captured and executed.

Hence, St. Valentine did not underwrite any of the unholy goings-on in the name of his remembrance day; he was supporting and espousing the cause of marriage and married life only. The sexual attraction now called love, (lovers, etc.) was not Valentine's emphasis at all.

some places are good for dating. the huge park opposite milenium bus depot on yamuna bank,heritage parks in old monuments,buddha jayanthi park,lodi gardens, and even the delhi zoo[with animals to keep company]
There are however some hazards- park attendants,transgenders,police,[normal,moral] some relations wanting fresh air in parks.some need to be paid off by couples in love. Many in millenium park wear burkhas for anonymity when they enter and have to rush off in emergency. delhi police use one of these parks for their fake encounters. when law and order becomes bad , some poor belonging to minority community -history sheeters get shot. love in parks can be dangerous business also

Sir,

Chennai love birds are equally shrewd. There was once ‘Lovers park’ in Chennai I am told and don’t know why it was named as such. But nowadays, no love birds go over the Marina or Elliots Beaches bcos these beaches are more crowded and they are disturbed by the vendors and as such these locations don’t suits these pairs.

They have now chosen ideal locations which are quite isolated from this busy Metro, but located inside Chennai. These favorite locations are Gandhi Mandapam at Adyar and ‘Flying trains’ which runs between Beach and Velachery. These lovers make best use of these ‘train travel’ by getting either season tickets or return tickets. In fact Railways needs to thank them for their patronage.One can see ‘lovers in action’ in trains which are ‘in motion’. These trains, fortunately for them, have only very few passengers which provides sufficient desired privacy for them.

Gandhi mandapam is private property of guindy engineeing college[CEG} students. It is their favourite spot for meeting persons of opposite gender.now you have made the info. public and many parents will haunt the park. LOL

We can see lots of teenage love birds in the Vandalur zoo. :hug:

 

[vgane]

You are forgetting the Cinema halls....They still continue to be patronized by the couples...Especially last rows or the private enclosures which are for a premium!

Dear Ganesh Sir,
With all these 'facilities' available, is there a need for a Valentine's day? :decision:

Dear RR Madam,

I agree whole heartedly for scrapping this

 

[Raji Ram]

Thank you Ganesh Sir.

 

[sarang]

Will be considered as an unwarranted intrusion on privacy and freedom of beaus and girls from spending money on roses (rs.100 per stem) and gifts (mainly recharge vouchers for phones).

Dear RR Madam,

I agree whole heartedly for scrapping this

 

[Raji Ram]

OMG! We forget about 'intrusion of privacy' often!! :tsk:

parents mostly do not believe in need for privacy of girls in marriageable age. they feel all undesirable boys [read non TB boys] are out to trap their darling daughters.[ normally mothers like to choose the son in laws]. hence there is a general feeling that there is no need for valentine or such days

Get out of the love traps especially IR before the community gets trapped!

Balooji
It appears indian youngster have escaped the valentine atrocities.Instead Racist attacks are the flavour of the season. It was ugandans in delhi. north east people due to their mangaloid features are having a tough time from local goons. in south delhi ,landlords are getting rid of them from their houses . They are also charged higher rents.their girls due to their liberated life styles are easy targets for delhi males.foreigner tourists from western countries have got advisories to not visit delhi and exercise caution.In tamilnadu you are better off. generally south has better law and order. except a few pockets you are safe.

Dear Vaithehi,

Scams happen everywhere..even out here in Malaysia all sorts of scams happen.

People also are to blame for being foolish enough to believe anything they see which promises instant money.

There are good and bad in each race in this world..here we do have many Nigerian scams too but at the same time there are truly good Nigerian students who are religious and such wonderful singers at the churches out here.

But per law there is always a protocol to follow by police that one is Innocent till proven guilty.

 

[prasad1]

You generally fall pray to scams when you are greedy, and gullible. A fool and his/her money will be parted by smarter people (may it be Nigerian). It is wrong to blame it on one group.

 

[vgane]

Nigeria is notorious for 419 scams...419 refers to the Nigerian criminal code dealing with fraud..You have innovative scamsters there in form of dubious employment scams, fake checks, fictitious wire transfers promising the moon, hijacking of friends email and making distress call...Better watch out..They have a new trick up their sleeve every other day!

419 scams - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Sir,

We need to be very careful and should not fall prey to these cheating gangs.

Whenever I log in, invariably every time, there will be a tempting message congratulating me to be the winner of some expensive gift and shall ask me to comply with simple formalities to claim the gift.

I simply ignore these messages as I know pretty well that these are all nothing but traps.

 

[krish44]

I hardly come across anyone who got cheated by nigerians while it is true that one gets the types of messages mentioned in email.most who have access to net are sensible enough.but some here are in drug trade and human trafficking. there are some from uganda and east european countries also involved in these things. these make things difficult for students from these countries who are here to better their career prospects.
what about indians who get cheated by resort telemarketing guys who call you to collect free gifts and try selling resorts or insurance frauds who ring you to say you have not collected your bonus and defraud you after collecting your details and collecting signatures. if one is so gullible then he deserves to be cheated. they say a fool and his money will be soon parted

 

[vaithehi]

These are all western related problems...because western civilization spread throughout the world..this is the root cause...then it led to mix of race...people who were mere work men who didn't have sufficient knowledge..seeing intelligent people living comfortably started cheating other people and started living comfortably...even brahmins fallen prey to western civilization impact and forgone all their traditional forgotten everything and simply become money mongers or following pseudo brahminism or pseudo hinduism..this is the biiter truth...but no one will accept it

r.vaithehi

 

[vaithehi]

When a person is without job...without proper education...at the necessity of having to earn money will definitely will fall prey to these vicious influences..it is irrespective of any caste , creed or race....Now western civilization has made us slave to more comforts and luxuries...this is the root cause...but no one is thinking about these and just blaming people instead of thinking if we are also in the same situation , we also will do the same thing only...PASI VANDHIDA PATTUM PARANTHU BOHUM
