As Indians, we all are well aware of the British Raj in India. At that time, there were lots of places where Indians were not allowed. But now, the time has changed and we are free to go anywhere or do anything.
However, there are still some places in India that are banned only for Indians, even after 75 years of independence.
Yeah! it sounds a little strange, but it is the truth. Here in this article, we have mentioned those 5 forbidden places in India. So, let’s get started.
5 Indian Places Where Indians are Not Allowed
1. Free Kasol Cafe, Kasol, Himachal Pradesh

Kasol is one of the most beautiful tourist attractions in India. Both Indian and foreign tourists visit here every day to experience the best of nature. And this popular destination features Free Kasol Cafe which is famous for its Israeli food.
But if you are an Indian, then you can’t get inside this restaurant. Because this cafe only serves foreigners and follows the “No Indians” policy.
However, if you have a passport of any other country, then the cafe welcomes you cheerfully.
2. Norbulingka Cafe, Dharamshala, Himachal Pradesh

Located in Dharamshala, Norbulingka cafe is one step ahead of Free Kasol Cafe in racism against Indians. It follows a very strict rule to not let any native citizen inside the cafe.
Even if anyone is not an Indian but looks like one, the cafe does not allow him either. How can they follow this unrespectable rule for Indians after being situated here?
But the most frustrating thing is that no one is taking any action against it and the cafe is still running.

According to them, they are doing business and want to provide an isolated environment for foreigners.
