We are living in a world where there are
different kinds of culture. Since globalization, there is an amalgam of these
different cultures. Every culture has its own unique features which starts
right from the etiquette to eating habits till the dressing style. Like Japanese
has their own dressing style, similarly, Bhutanese wear their traditional dress
and same way dhoti in India is a traditional dress. Due to globalization most of the people around
the world are now aware about the dressing style of people belonging to other
cultures.
Recently in Dubai a very sad incident occurred
where an old man of Indian origin who was wearing dhoti, was not allowed to
enter Dubai metro. Police stopped this old man and his daughter on the punching
gate of Dubai metro station. Police showed concerned that such kind of clothing
cannot be allowed to wear on metro. Though, daughter of old man tried to
explain that this is traditional dress of India which covers body successfully,
the police man was not ready to understand.

This incident is an indication to the
government of India to promote their culture all over the world otherwise such
kind of incidences keep on embarrassing Indians on foreign platform. Indian
citizens should also respect their culture and promote it on international
platform. I hope this kind of incidences will not happen again in future.
