It is horrifying to know the existence of 'khap panchayats' in a few regions of India. Firstly, their very existence is devoid of any legality and even if they are there by virtue of tradition , their 'passing sentences' in the name of "Honour-killings"cannot be accepted in today's world.
It is high time that Government takes bold steps to eliminate this menace from areas wherever it is existing, without caring for vote-bank.
Dear Kumar,
ReplyDeleteSaw your comments on khap Panchayat on your blog. I totally agree with you but our political masters, be they congress or BJP, would not support. Even if a law is made under public pressure,it would remain in books.
