In 2005 the Maharashtra government banned dance bars in the state on 'moral' grounds. Dancing was banned in bars that were lower than three starstatus. The government justified the ban arguing that the performances resulted in depravity, lowering public morality and exploited women. (But whether these issues were not relevant to performances in higher class establishments was not discussed). In 2006 the Bombay High Court ruled against the ban instituted by the government. On July 16, 2013 the Supreme Court upheld the judgment of the High Court, stating that the ban is discriminatory and contradicts the Constitution. In the wake of the ban in 2005, hundreds of bars were closed. An estimated 75,000 women lost their main source of livelihood. Apart from these dancers, the entire industry consisting of the support staff, waiters, managers, and other agencies that provided service to these bars were put out of work. However, there are other gruesome realities in the field. Many women are not duly paid. They depend mainly on the money "showered" on them by the clientele. They have no job security and they could be turned away any day. Although there are discussions on the immorality of women dancing in bars, the exploitation of women is not addressed in a comprehensive manner. The question is not raised whether the ban on dancing in bars makes those women more vulnerable to exploitation while denying them agency and the right of choice.42 Questions for Discussion 1.
