Sir
In spite of utterances by some khap leaders in support of honour killings in their individual capacity, I believe that no khap Punchayat endoses or supports any kind of bodily harm or killing some one for defying social norms.

In spite of utterances by some khap leaders in support of honour killings in their individual capacity, I believe that no khap Punchayat endoses or supports any kind of bodily harm or killing some one for defying social norms. Also there is no denial to the fact that khaps have been projected wrongly taking sides with the killers! To clear any doubts in this regards, I have a couple of suggestions.
1) A public relations team needs to be formed headed by somebody experienced with excellent communication skills. Any statement to the media should be through the PR team. The role of Khap Punchayats needs to be projected in right perspective.
2) The Mahapunchayat needs to pass a resolution that it condemns not only the honor killing but also any kind of violent means in maintaining and protecting social traditions that are sacred to us, particular the same Gotra marriages.
Khap Punchayats would use the traditional means of ‘social boycott’ against errant individuals, couples and families.
3) Not to resort to forceful tactics like ‘road jam’, cutting water suppy etc and loose moral support from others but adhered to peaceful agitation in demanding the amendment in the HMA.
Thanks and best wishes for the forthcoming Mahapunchayat!

Ravi Ji
Do you recognize this personality?
I may be wrong but to me, this man advocating death sentence is none other than our Balyan khap head Sh. Mahender Singh Tikait.
Cheers!
