Rave: Wrong meaning

The original meaning of Rave Party is : A dance party that lasts all night and electronically synthesized music is played. Few of the people and groups which are associated with Rave music are Prodigy, DJ Tiƫsto, Paul Van Dyk, Apex Twins and many more.

With the drug bust in a rave party in Pune a week back, the meaning of Rave has now been associated with narcotic drugs. This is completely wrong as in general the indian public has no idea what is the meaning of Rave. Now whenever the word rave will be mentioned or a Rave party will take place, people will think that Drugs are being used in such a place.

I am a music fan and love Rave music, so wanted to let people know that not to make up their minds about the Rave music, based on Media reports associating it with drugs. Narcotic drugs are not only used in this kind of party but can be found in use in a lot of high profile Celebrity parties. The only thing is that the corruption level is so high within the police ranks that those kind of parties are left alone. When the police are really interested in busting Drug peddlers then they should do it uniformly by raiding all kinds of parties. I am not telling how the cops should work, but only that these kind of parties are not a secret and is known publicly.

The funny thing I found regarding the Pune Rave Party bust is that the cops (Pune and Mumbai) and also the Media knew about it, way in advance like a couple of days and still couldnot plan it properly so that they could get the drug peddlers. The ones who were arrested were the group of students and professionals who probably might be using the drugs or the organisers of the party.
