Muzaffarnagar: A khap panchayat in Uttar Pradesh's Muzaffarnagar district has barred women from wearing jeans and men from wearing shorts. Justifying its diktat, the khap panchayat said that jeans are part of western culture and suggested that people should wear traditional Indian clothes.

The Rajput community panchayat also warned that those found violating the diktat will be punished and face a boycott. The panchayat was convened on March 2 in Pipalshah village under Charthawal police station.

Announcing the panchayat's decision, community leader and Kisan Sangh chief Thakur Puran Singh said it was decided to bar women from wearing jeans and men from wearing shorts.
He said these clothes are part of western culture. "We should wear our traditional clothes such as sarees, ''ghagra'' and ''salwar-kameez''," he said.

Those found violating the order will be punished and boycotted from the community, Puran Singh said.

Jamahir's comment : There is nothing wrong in women wearing jeans, other than them wearing traditional clothes, but I certainly don't approve of men wearing shorts.

Wow. Atleast these stupid dumbheads are upgrading now. They have banned men too this time along with women.
BTW no one listens these stupids nowadays . Young generation do what they want to do. They wear according to their wish.

That is true.

Sadly there are other regressive and wrong things that are continued by the youth on behalf of these elders. Things like honor killing, no thoughtful reaction to farmer suicides, and religious strife.
