"Pub-going couples will also have to prove their identity. The main motive behind the exercise is to check the entry of people under the age 25 years as mandated by in the law," a police officer told IANS here.
A pub owner said: "We will have to check the identities of the couples coming to the pubs and enter them in computers to keep their records."
The orders were made under the new guidelines issued by police following attacks on women and other infringements of law linked to the pubs here.
Besides, the pubs were asked to fix good quality CCTV cameras at their entry and exit points and within the premises.
Another bar owner said police have asked them to replace their bouncers with men hired from recognised security agencies.
