It's become a "style statement" with college goers here in India. It's a totally different story here - but it's come up more like the US. Both good and bad.<br/><br/>Cheers!<br/>mani I agree on all the points you mentioned. It’s become a “style statement” with college goers here in India.

You see, lots of people tend to drink the same drink all the time. If they drink several kinds of drinks, its the set everytime. Thats what these companies have realised, so they now want to host these parties so that they can lock in young drinkers to their product.<br/>re liquor being available at all social events since these parties, well, let me tell you, liquor has been available at most social events since man came out of the trees and stopped walking on all fours.

All in moderation. Nothing like relaxing with a fine glass of spirits. I’m a social drinker..white wine, mixed drinks and of course the tropical ones. All in moderation.

However, everything is good only in moderation. No being wasted for me. I have noticed how much the alcohol companies are supporting the parties.

Reminds me of the big thing with the Joe Camel cigarettes awhile back. :-( I guess it’s sort of just like any other drug except very available / not very regulated…you just kind of have to regulate yourself when it comes to alcohol.
