Dear Ravi,
Problem with us is that we (not just Jats but all Indians ) still follow years old orthodx traditions which might not be relevant in the current scenario. Also we force these customs as society as a whole to all irrespective of the fact what does an individual/family wants. It is there with regrad to marriage ,eductaion , job , religion, caste etc. Thats y students suicide when they fail, parents done even bother to think twice before killing their own kins..We need to be more tolerant and at least develop some humanity ..I am not questioning Khaps origin , their need and so on..all I am saying that todya khaps are forced one , they are not required, they might be required some decades back but not now..also yes present Khaps are corrupt, politically inclined and selfish. By comparing them by Taliban I only meant to say thet as Taliban forces age old traditions to the society , same does these Khaps do . I am not against intra-gotra marriages because earlier when clan was small then in-breeding might be the issue but now its too huge personally I would not like to maintain sister like relationship with any stranger just bcos she is of smae gotra..and my whole point is lets rise above al these petty issues and work for the social development , if these Khaps are so concerned about the social issues then girl infanticide, child marriage, dowry etc would have not been there . I at least expect young educated youth like us and MP like Jindal should not fall into Khaps propaganda.
And here I have just huge harsh language these guys (Khaps) deserve harsh punsihment , just ask the mother how she feels whose son and daughter in law got killed in front of her eyes.
Let sense prevails and so the peace...
Regards,
Satyendra
