UP Khap Panchayat bans Jat boys from wearing shorts
The Khap Panchayat in Uttar Pradesh's Shamli has banned boys of the Jat community from wearing shorts, to "rejuvenate their culture". "Men wearing shorts in public places sets bad precedent. If girls are discouraged from wearing jeans, why should boys not be banned from wearing shorts? We do not differentiate between sons and daughters," a Khap leader said.
