You are living in a disillusion my friend. You dont like it, fair enough...but dont generalize it saying most South Indians dont like it. I have most of my Bangalore frnds are South Indians and mad party lovers
They are a minority. Most South Indians even in cities are conservative compared to people in Delhi and Mumbai.

Huh? And what is the reason you came into this conclusion? Hindi movies where they wrongly sterotype Southies, Chennai Express? As I see it, most northies are conservative here. Many of my friends have strict rules, such as to get back to their parents house by so and so time and lot more. And by no means are Mallus or Bangloreans conservative. You have got it totally wrong dude.

well how many accidents happen in India with druken driving ? how many people are run over in sleep?
For every 1 stupid moron who drives under the influence of alcohol, there's probably 1000 people who drink responsibly. Dont blame the drink, blame the people.

Seems like a BS rule at first, but given the irresponsible behavior by people in general and lack of effective policing, I would say it a wise rule.

BANGALORE: Chilling out with colleagues over a couple of pints after sunset is becoming common among office-goers in the city, a trend that has kept London's pubs crowded after 6pm. In cities with a high density of commercial establishments, such as New York and London, there has always been a trend of people leaving office early to catch a drink before heading home for dinner.
In India's IT capital, between 6pm and 7pm, just after commercial establishments close for the day, pubs, bars and microbreweries are seeing a fair amount of business - a result of a cultural shift in consumer mindset. "On weekdays between 6.30pm and 7pm, we get a significant crowd. On Fridays, this moves to as early as 5.45pm," says Sibi Venkataraju, co-founder, Toit, a microbrewery in the city's CBD area that opened two years ago. For over a year after it opened, a majority of Toit's customers would only start trickling in by about 8.30pm. The microbrewery, which has a seating capacity of 350 covers (a cover being one seat), is about 60% full around 6.30pm on weekdays; on Fridays, it's 70% full by 6pm. The average stay per person is approximately three hours. In some ways, this reflects how certain sections of society are adapting to the 11pm nightlife deadline that Bangalore has despite being on the global map. However, this twilight-hour trend has in no way dampened the overall partying culture in the city. In fact, clubs and bars now have two very distinct categories of consumers to cater to. Santosh Martin, co-owner of Skyye Bar, UB City, which opens at 5.30pm, believes that the 6pm crowd is very different from people who walk in three hours later. "It's strictly office-goers from commercial establishments within the CBD. In some ways, it's a good plan for these people to beat the peak-hour traffic," says Martin. The 6pm crowd is older, consisting of senior management employees who have more control over their time. These early birds come in with a large number of foreign guests - either clients or employees from abroad. "Most foreigners have a culture of wrapping up work early and heading straight out for a drink with colleagues. So that could be an influencing factor," notes Venkataraju. German sports lifestyle brand Puma, which opened its first global standalone food-and-beverages club in Bangalore this month, isn't perturbed by the fact that the city has an 11pm deadline for nightlife. "What we've noticed across some of the places in Indiranagar is that a lot them are getting full by 6.30pm as people leave offices by 5.30-6pm to head out for a drink. A lot of working people in the city are imbibing this western culture," says Puma India MD Rajiv Mehta. "In Mumbai, because they know that places are open till late, people go home, shower, change, eat, and by 9.30-10pm start leaving for the club. If you enter a club at 7pm, people will laugh at you in Mumbai," he adds.

The city has minimal infrastructure, the people barely follow the rules even during the day, crossing the roads is like winning a one on one fight against against all the vehicles on the street, and some people want 3 am bar and pub closing times just because they have decided to grace the city with their presence. I hope people know that india has the highest road accident numbers in the world and a large part of it is because people drink and drive and feel they are too entitled to follow the rules.
