Gehlot directed the officials to take strict action on night clubs and hookah bars and to enforce the guidelines with strictness.

After the live of First India, merely two police officers went to the actual spot, for the sake of police presence and the two officers arrived without any police force and as a result more than 200 people ran away in front of these officers. But not a single arrest could be made due to lack of police force.

In First India’s reality check of night clubs at 1 am on Sunday night, the game of Night Clubs was going on in the presence of police officers whereas according to rules, music has to stop at around 10 PM.

On Monday evening Gehlot took cognizance of the news report. This development caused a major stir in all Night Clubs of Jaipur and it was observed that Night Clubs of Jaipur didn’t open after 12 midnight from Monday itself. Notably, this step of Gehlot is being praised in all sections of the society since if the orders were flouted, hundreds of people would have roamed in big night clubs of Jaipur under the influence of alcohol and hookah! Meeting went on for over an hour during which Rajendra Yadav, Usha Sharma, Anand Kumar, Umesh Mishra, Dinesh MN, Anand Srivastava, and Biju George Joseph among others were present.
