Internet Users Express Outrage Over Unconventional Regulations Imposed by Bengaluru’s Housing Society

A society in Bengaluru has issued guidelines banning bachelors and spinsters from having guests post 10pm in their flats. The rules also require tenants to gain prior approval by email from the owner in situations where a guest needs to stay overnight. A notice shared on Reddit read: “No guests are allowed to Bachelors and Spinster’s flats post 10 pm. Guests are not allowed to stay overnight. If required, prior approval from Owner on email, Manager or Association office to be requested by submitting the guests ID proof and furnishing the stay duration and Guest entry on Mygate.” Many internet users have criticised the rules for denying tenants the use of their rented space as they choose.
