Times of India –After 5 years-Court Trial

The court trial between Dance Bars Association of India and Maharashtra Government goes into 29th day

05.09.2013

The case against Dance Bars Association of India took a dramatic turn on Thursday when Sr. Advocate P.K.Ludke, representing the Government of Maharashtra, submitted the 61-page Mckinsey report on ‘Employment of Dance Bar waiters – Concerns and Statistics’.

It read, “Unemployment of former dance waiters does not seen to be an issue anymore, as the thriving night-life and pub-culture in India has presented them with multiple employment opportunities. They’ve found employment at the clubs and discos as bouncers. The not so well-built waiters have been subsequently employed as waiters in the same clubs after being referred by their bouncer friends. The success of this referral scheme can be attributed to the well-networked dance bar industry, which employed over 50,000 bar dancers and 5,000 waiters, before it was closed by the then Deputy Chief Minister of Maharashtra, R.R.Patil in August 2005.

However, problems arise when a former dance-bar customer goes to a club, and starts throwing 10 Rupee bills (known as dud-dus ke note udaana). As a habit, the bouncers and waiters jump immediately and start collecting the bills from the floor. This sometimes leads to the club management firing the staff-members who behave this way. Furthermore, the problem worsens when a friend of the customer, who also happens to be a former-dance bar customer intervenes in order to save his friend from a fuming manager – ‘Gaali waali kya dete ho, isko toh mukke maaro’”

This can be a severe blow to the Dance Bar Association on the 29th day of trial, as they try to get the ban on dance bars lifted after 8 years.
