Thank you for the sensible critique. Me and my neighbor were just preparing to do some research on this. We got a grab a book from our area library but I think I learned more clear from this post. I’m very glad to see such magnificent information being shared freely out there.

The leader of the Khap Panchayats should be hanged along with the family members who go by this barbaric act in the name of honour killing..If that happens the Khap Panchayats wil be deficient of such immoral leaders who pronounce such injust judgements..

@ arvind singh

What Ms.Iyer quoted is a deep seated truth of chthat has been revealed to the aesthetically merited people. That doesn’t mean that we are poles apart. That article was a ‘teeling aloud’ of a deplorable custom that is rampant in India now. It has nothing to do with a parent-child relation being mutilated of the child’s thoughts. Child once grown up becomes a separate entity with individual thoughts and dreams. Indian democracy provides him the most of it all. thus the intervention of the prents become illegal in all dimensions…

Thanks a lot for making this platform rich with your thought-provoking comments

@ Rajashri Iyer,
Thanks for giving Interesting quote, Its means children are not belonging to their parents, Parents don’t have any right on their own child.. what about same gotra marriage?, It is also one of the reason of Honor Killing, and if your quotes say “Your children are not your children” then they also have human right to marry with his/her own brother or sister, because their is no relation between two persons.
I think parents must give some space to their child but not freedom to choose their own life partners against parents wishes.

@ Arvind Singh

Thank you for your comment and the newsworthy link. Yes, we do agree with you in the matters concerning the parents who dwell upon the dreams for their children. At this contest I like to quote Khalil Gibran :” Your children are not your children.
They are the sons and daughters of Life’s longing for itself.
They come through you but not from you,
And though they are with you yet they belong not to you..”

Very nice article, I agree with you that the act of killing your own Child in the name of honor is not justified and barbaric too but aren’t we cheating our parents and family when we indulge in such acts. I think its natural if our parents control whom we should marry or not. I read some on http://www.lawisgreek.com/india-legal-news-government-proposes-ordinance-to-prevent-honor-killings/
