31st night
Though these parties are full of fun, they have negative sides as well. Many awkward incidents had taken place in the past. On account of drinking liquor, some party-goers lose their control and indulge in senseless violence like fighting, breaking things and misbehaving with others. In order to be the centre of attraction, many society girls adorn themselves in such dresses in these parties that only raise bestiality in some men.
Dancing is the worst part of these night gatherings because some people use it to make physical contact with dancing partners which ushers in relationship problems in many cases. With the midnight approaching, these parties become so wild in fun and frolic that dignity of women are not safe at all. Not only in late night parties but also in roads and streets, some people create disorder. They throw paint, mud on passers by and damage motor vehicles in the name of celebrations. Loud thud of crackers and bombs go on continuously till the clock bells announce a new year which are really irritating.
