#2 Girlfriends plural? Methinks the "Hindu nationalists" won't be the one beating this one up. :-)

#3 ``We will not allow any foreign festival which is a violation of Indian culture.ââ

What's that Indian festival where they get all doped up and throw colourful paint all over each other?? Valentine's day seems mild by comparison.

... have threatened to shave young loversâ heads and beat them ...

Our choice on that day is either to do that or to go get jobs.

The Festival of Colours

I witnessed this interesting celebration on the beach in Goa back in 2000 - and 5 Hindus were shot dead on the beach that day... seems they got a little rambunctious and accidentally splashed some Sikhs during the day. Penalty: death. To paraphrase a line from Full Metal Jacket, "I wanted to visit an ancient cultured land, and watch them kill each other..."
