    Consumption of alcohol is the main cause for such stir up and trouble at many of the festivals and one has to be very careful when teasing or harassing the opposite sex, specially if they can`t accept such teasing in the right spirit. The young man Titesh unfortunately was not so lucky on this occasion and paid the price when he went over the board mainly due to his alcohol consumption I suppose, but, anyway, he will learn a lesson.
