Nirvana I don't think they have any problem at all with colour which is why it is not really apartheid. I think they have a problem with wealth. The bars are quite small and they only want them filled with people who are going to earn them money.

I think the only way they have worked out a quick way of ensuring everyone inside has plenty of cash to spend is to restrict those from sub continent.

However they have no problem with people from sub continent in my experience (i.e. if they are with my group or very welll dressed) but they do, unfortunately, need to have wealth proved to them from people from that region.
