Kissing is not our culture- they say, and have no idea that more than 50 variances of kisses are described in Kama Sutra. Kissing is obscene the fundamentalists say- and they have themselves the most obscene mind. Kissing shouldnt be public- they say, and have no clue that historically women were bare chested- previous to semetic invasion. Public Kissing is dirty they say- true lovers and I say: Public kissing is a declaration of affection and pure love.And as the French say- its the exchange of souls.

what a load of crap? The only people pissed off at kissing couples are those who cant get any themselves.
As far as our culture and other allied bullsit, has anyone ever been to Khajurao sex temples? Geez talk about porn in a temple? So please dont lecture morality in the land of kamasutra.
The reatrded govt needs to find better ways to waste our money

I don't find any harm in this as it not causing any damage to others! Its just a mark of affection!!
you say it western or Indian everywhere its same!!
the only difference is the way of thinking, if somebody is kissing his wife, girlfriend, sister, daughter, brother or son can be anybody in public or not in public who cares! its his own life why are u bothered! if u don't like u don't do it! but don't push ur thinking on others

Dear Sir,
What culture are you talking about, the British Culture which invaded india, the Islamic culture of Mughals who invaded India or the Kamasutra culture.
Why dont the moral police go and destroy those temples and heritage palaces built by our ancestors having men and women idols in so called obscene poses ?
Then we will have laws to ban christian couple kissing in church when they have just married.
I have heard psychatric experts say, moral police consists of people who are sexually frustrated.
We should be mature enough to ignore and a leave couple alone making a descent love. I don't understand what problem a descent elderly person will have when a young couple is making a descent love in public.

Make up your mind buddy law does not necessarily need to reflact morality. as morality is a subjective issue. if you are a rightist fantaic hindu fanatic muslim fanatic sikh fanatic christian which you clearly seem to be then you will start singing about indian culture about irrelevant things like kissing or wardrobe malefunctions you sure don't think that children dying because of hunger or people getting injustice or women being raped in delhi every day are against indian culture do you...it's just kissing that is causing all the ills in the society...right? Losers who support the ban, GET A LIFE!!!!

NO, it is not a part of our culture. India has never had such a restriction. We are the land of the kama-sutra, remember. This kissing being a part of the so-calle morality is derived from the british, who have seen sense, and accepted public kissing...

Can you define 1 culture in India the problem is with your defination of culture. I remember a friend who was stopped and fined by police simply because a female classmate was sitting behind him on the bike in Chennai. Poor guy was just being polite as there was no bus for another hour from college. Being from Delhi when I heard this incedent I was amazed and and angry on police. So things which are fine Delhi are not in Chennai that is culture!!!

Hi Sir I seriously feel it's high time you need to have a reality check if you are talking about culture as culture is not what you presume and perceive based on certain preconceived notions imbibed from your ancestors but it is rather the way we have behaved over the last 10,000 years.So if you turn the pages of history you would find what culture was or just flip through pages of mahabharata and turn to Krishna Janm and you will find the liberties Krishna had with Gopis. So for God's sake dont use the word culture for defending your point.
