| Summary, etc | Khap panchayat are endogamous and clannish traditional institutions ,primarily engaged in dispute resolution and in regulating the behavior of individuals or groups in rural North India.They have mainly been confined to social issues and maintaining harmony and community feeling. The introductory part explores the genesis ,basis and role of khap panchayats.Khap panchayats attracted the attention of scholars only when Electronic media highlighted some of their decisions related to honour killing. Honour killing in the context of matrimonial alliances has been a quintessential cultural practice. The paper further explores what is honour killing and which acts are considered dishonourable by the community and family. Thousands are killed in the name of honour by family members ,merely because a couple wish to marry or marry someone outside their caste ,faith or gotra.The frequency of honour killing has been higher in Northern India especially in Haryana.It is debatable whether traditional cultural norms and values demeaning individual's autonomy ,choice,dignity and right to life and thus striking at the core of formal laws and liberal values.- Reproduced https://www.sajospsglobal.com/current.html |
