[QUOTE="rajneesh madhok, post: 128961, member: 10692"] Honourable Dr. Narayanjot kaur ji and Kanwardeepji, Regards, Still the point of discussion is incomplete as the Question is: Is there any honour in killing for “Honour”. How we can describe the Murder as a Matter of HONOUR In March this year a court in the northern Indian State of Haryana sentenced five family members to death for killing a young couple who married within the same sub-caste. It was the first time that the court had awarded such a harsh penalty in Honour Killing case. Now another two points generated with this decision: [LIST] [*]The women’s rights activists hailed the decision as a landmark judgement, honour killings continue unabated. [*]Defiant Khap panchayats- Village councils that order such killings are calling for an amendment to the Hindu Marriage Act to fit their beliefs regarding sub-caste and inter-caste marriages. [/LIST] I agree to Dr. Naraynjot Kaur regarding her post of Arranged marriage. Such kind of prearranged marriage is being arranged by someone other than the couple getting wedded. Such type of marriages had deep roots in royal and aristrocratic families around the world including Europe also. The factors in arranged marriage is being considered. [LIST] [*]Reputation of the family. [*]Vocation For a groom and bride, the profession like doctor, accountant, lawyer or engineer. , traditional value, income. [*]Wealth—Substantial assets of both families as the families prefer to marry another wealthy family. [*]Pre-existing medical conditions: Deformity, disease or disability. [*]Personality: Complexion, [*]Horosocope: Numerology and positions of stars at birth is often used in Indian culture to predict the success of particular match. [*]Psychological compatibility. [*]Diet: Vegetariansim and so. [*]Height: Typically the groom should be taller than the bride. [*]Age: Typically the groom should be older than the bride. [*]Language: language deemed to be an important criteria. [/LIST] When the above mentioned factors are being considered in arranged marriage. Then we hope that there are much more bright chances to get adjusted in life between the couple. Kanwardeepji, Now I come to the point. I have described the factors those are being considered in arranged marriage but in love affair those factors have not been considered. Whether we shall consider these factors as ancient civilization, customs and traditions or the real points to be considered for marriage are the factors as cited above. Now the considerable question is why the honour killings are happening. If we leave only one point of Caste and Gotra in the above mentioned 11 points. The rest of the points are also having great value. Kindly comment: Rajneesh Madhok [/QUOTE]
