Dear MEL
Topic Readers,
Why
drinking in India is an 'outdoor sport'
Is
drinking alcohol disrespectful? It seems so in India, at least before family
members, especially the mother. In fact, some of the states even prohibit alcohol consumption. So what do they do when they want to have a
drink? They can go to a bar, of course. But there are other popular ways to
enjoy drinking in India.
One way
is to drink in a taxi or rickshaw, either a pedaled or engined. The passenger
can enjoy drinking while it is driven or parked. The driver may serve whisky
and join you in drinking it.
Another
way is even simpler. Just drink on the street, not on a busy street but on a dark
and quite one.
You may
wonder if drinking and driving is allowed in India, or leaving empty bottles on
the street an acceptable habit.
Enjoy
reading and thinking what you’d do when you wanted to have a drink in India.
