well I feel moral police perfectly right in doing these things. Because this is what makes India complete India. Our culture our values are extremely important. When you visit europe and US you will find all these things that are mentioned but this really pisses people off sometimes and even they are disgusted by all this but since they dont have any laws for this they cant do anything. If you want to kiss then you have lots of places (like your house) where you can kiss and stuff. but why display your affection in Public and decline the morals of children . Please dont let globalization let change our values . I am sitting abroad and sincerely feel how well off we are back home. great going moral police .. gaurav

Mr. Solanki, Which Indian values and culture you are talking about? One that is based on caste, creed, dowry death, rapes in broad daylight, pissing roadside in full view of hundred other people, female infanticide, corruption, looting public money? You Indians are the most crazy people on earth. Instead of putting your mind and energy on development of the country based on justice, equality, corruption free environment, you guys are wasting your time on petty stuffs like kissing in public. When the entire India TV channels are full of naked women dancing in remix tunes, you have no logic to ban things like kissing in public, dance bars etc. Lakhs of Indian women go to prostitution due to your own archaic laws and social systems. Do something for more important issues than on petty stuffs. The world is moving in electronic speed, but Indians' mind still remains stuck in medieval thoughts and rules.
Why dont you raze the khajuraho temples to the ground ?? why keep them standing? Arent they part of our culture? Or were they biult by Americans? Kissing ????? These temples depict actual lovemaking. Our so called "culture" says love unless certified under marriage is dirty, dangerous and despicable. For our culture, love and sex are dirty and ugly words. Ironically, love stories make the most money in bollywood. Some of our most famous stories are love stories. Some of our greatest literary works explore sexuality. Still we continue to be narrow minded. WHY?? because we really dont understand what it means to truly love. Why do these couples kiss in public places ? Because almost all of them are shunned by their parents, ridiculed by their colleagues and hunted by the law. Believe it or not, they really dont have a private place to go to !!!
If your child or little sister sees two people kissing in public, look him or her in the eye and tell him they are in love, and they are expressing that love to each other. Thats it.Look at it as something beautiful. If you see two people having sex in public, then call the police.
