As a resident of Gurugram, known as the 'millennium city', one would think they would enjoy world class facilities and comfort. That's certainly not the case with Raj Gopal, a resident of Essel Towers in Gurugram who got a rude shock over the weekend when he discovered that members of the opposite sex are not allowed in your apartment if you are single. In a Facebook post, he described how security guards made a female friend leave his apartment late in the night because it was not permitted.
The building earlier didn't allow members of the opposite sex to stay beyond 10pm but the rule was changed and now the society totally bars from visiting. Raj Gopal says he was unaware of the new rule till he saw a circular put up outside his building. The post doesn't mention why the new rule came into place.
The analyst from Gurugram posted an image of the new circular by the Resident's Welfare Association of the society on Sunday. "Where only girls are staying boy visitors shall not be allowed and where boys are staying girl visitors shall not be allowed" stated the circular. The Gurugram-resident slammed the restrictions set by the complex calling it "moral policing of the gravest order."
In another incident, he wrote, the guards harassed him early in the morning asking him to send his female friends home even when he tried to assure them they had already left.
