The courts today sentenced the self-styled Khap panchayat members who were a part of the brutal murders of Manoj and Babli were sentenced to death.
Capital punishment should be reserved for the severest of crimes and I thinks this case merits it.
Murdering a young couple because they dared them is disturbing. Marriage between two consenting adults is their choice... let them do what they want.. its their lives.
Things go wrong when society tries to impose the rights and wrongs of the warped types on individuals. Stifling one's right to live is ludicrous and should be dealt in the harshest way possible.
Society does not make individuals hold good...it is the individuals who by virtue of their actions work the society around them.
In a stroke the Khap Panchayat, and they might have done some good work sometime, but will be known forever in future by their misdeeds in this case.
As a malaise in general this does permeates more than one community. Everyday news-reports in this regard make headway maybe not honour killings but kangaroo courts taking law into their hands and passing judgements.. Who are we to pass judgements on others when we too r susceptible to the same frailties.. and the way our courts function i am surprised that this case reached its logical end. I hope that the lacunae in our judicial system does not allow these convicts to escape what is a mightily deserved penalty.. a Manu Sharma roaming in a bar sometimes upsets me with what people with power can do to bend and work around rules according to their needs.
Lets hope that it does not happen in this case and these guys are executed. Some battle for he boy's mother to lead being ostracized socially and lead on fighting to get justice for the killers of her son. The heart of a mother, the will of her's.
The lawyer Lal Bahadur deserves a mention for claiming modestly at the end that he was just doing his duty in the face of immense pressure to bungle up!!.. kudos!!

well the Haryana Court does indeed deserve an applaud, but with so much backlog our judicial system suffers from, it may not be possible for justice to be given everytime.I guess civil society needs to play a far more active role in such cases.........dont u think so?????
First, Manoj did wrong ignoring the tradition of the society.
Then Babli, supporting Manoj, did very wrong forgetting the limits of an honoured village girl, the limits set for a respectful and loving girl of the whole village. The limits which give a girl the honour and preasure of being 'gaon ki beti, sabki beti'.
Panchayat tood a balanced decision on the incident, but unfortunately, the circumstances took place and again that was happened which was very right according to the village custom.
This was not happened for the first time in the Indian traditional social system.
The family people (brothers, chacha ji and dada ji) hard heartedly Killing their own beloved girl did the very right thing for the sake of the social traditions.
Remember, these family people had to take the hard decision of killing the hardly adult couple only after realising that the so called 'Law of the land (of England ,applied in British India and ignorantly continued in the INDIPENDENT INDIA) is not going to protect the feelings of the village people but the two mischievous (not adult enough to understand the feelings of their elders in the mere age of 19, but adults in the eyes of the 'LAW' established)
This was not happened for the first time in Indian society, but this time media is managing the law and the governance.
In case of marriage in Indian society, the rule of avoiding one's own 'gotra' and mother's 'gotra' had been set since long after years of scientific research & studies.
Actually, it is essential for the birth of better breed, for the better next generation in the family. It is scientifically proved.
The same formula is applied in getting better breed of animals like cow and horses.
The so called modern convent educated modern generation, having so called scientific approach have no sense to understand the depth of the scientific approach in setting up the traditions in Indian society.
The court's verdict of giving 5 people the 'capital sentence' is too hard forgetting the culprits/victims belong to Babli's own family.
The decision is influenced by the media which is esteemed to spoil the Indian traditions and supporting the imported 'Human Rights' concept.
The killers of Babli and Manoj should be giving punishment because these people took the law in their own hands.
But the real work to do is to ammend the IPC according to Indian system which prefers society over the imported modern fashion of 'Human Rights'.
My openion is that there is a war between the so called western culture (supporting immeature fundas like human rights) and the Indian traditional/cultural values.
The law of the land (England), imposed in India, is making the things worst.
Gandhi ji, advocating the Ram Raj through Panchayati Raj had felt the key role of the panchayats in the society.
I have sympathy on the people of Babli's family, sentenced to death who are the victims of the British law applied in India and I really want to salute their feelings who put their life on stake to give a hard message to those youngster who are always keen to corrupt the set up of the traditions of the society.
The persons should be sacrified for the sake of the family.
The family should be sacrified for the sake of the society.
And the society should be sacrified for the sake of the Nation.
KILLERS OF MANOJ AND BABLI SHOULD NOT GET ANY BAIL OR ANY OTHER PUNISHMENT....THEY DESERVE PUNISHMENT OF "HANG TILL DEATH"....AND ONE MORE THING, GOVERNMENT HAS NO RIGHT TO DECIDE FROM WHOM SHOULD WE MARRY OR NOT MARRY...I DON'T BELIEVE IN CASTE AND GOTRA...... IN SCHOOLS TEACHER TEACH US ABOUT RELIGIONS & CASTE AND WHAT THEY SAID IS THAT ALL THE GOOD THINGS ARE WRITTEN IN EVERY SPIRITUAL BOOKS WHETHER IT SHOULD BE BIBEL, KURAN OR GEETA AND ETC...ALL RELIGION IS SAME...THERE IS ONLY ONE RELIGION WHICH IS "HUMANITY".. ACCORDING TO DOCTOR MANOJ HE SAID THAT "The family people (brothers, chacha ji and dada ji) hard heartedly Killing their own beloved girl did the very right thing for the sake of the social traditions". he family people (brothers, chacha ji and dada ji) hard heartedly Killing their own beloved girl did the very right thing for the sake of the social traditions. ONE THING WHICH I WANT TO CLEAR WITH DR.MANOJ IS THAT RIGHT? "FOR SAKE OF SOCIAL TRADITION WE SHOULD KILL OUR FAMILY MEMBERS" .and ONE MORE THING WHO HAS GIVEN ANY ONE TO KILL ANY ONE...ACCORDING TO LAW NO ONE HAS RIGHT TO KILL ANY ONE...IF PANCHAYAT IS DOING THIS THOSE PANCHAYAT SHOULD BE BAN ASAP,because in the country where we are staying has CONSTITUTE which is same for all.....
