Kolkata: Art of Living teacher alleges he was denied entry in swimming club for wearing pyjamas

Earlier in June, an elderly woman from Meghalaya alleged she was asked to leave the Delhi Golf Club as she was wearing a traditional Khasi dress. “They told me, ‘Leave the dining hall, maids are not allowed.’ They were very rude. I felt ashamed and angry. I was wearing the traditional Khasi dress — Jainsem — and they told me this dress was not allowed,” the woman, Tailin Lyngdoh, said. Tailin, who is a governess, and her employer, Nivedita Barthakur, were invited for lunch at the Delhi Golf Club by a member.
