In a bizarre diktat a society in Greater Noida has urged its residents to be mindful of their attire when in common areas and park facilities.

The circular issued by the Himsagar Apartment AOA requested the residents to not step out of their flats wearing "lungis and nighties", the reports mentioned.

The notice received criticism online for its attempt to police people's personal choices.

The notice with the title "Dress code for walking in the premises of the society" was issued by the RWA of Himsagar Society in Phi-2, Greater Noida.

It read, "It is expected from all of you that whenever you roam in the society at any time, you should pay special attention to your conduct and dress so that you do not give any chance to someone to object to your behaviour... Therefore, everyone is requested not to roam around wearing lungi and nightie which are home wear."

"This is a good decision taken by society and everyone must respect it, there is nothing to oppose. If women wear nighties and roam around, that will be uncomfortable for men and if men wear Lungis that would be uncomfortable for women as well so we need to respect each other," CK Kalra, RWA President was quoted in a report published on NDTV.

The notice triggered an array of comments. While some appreciated the move, others criticised it.
