Womens tonsure their heads (2)Nagpur: Hair for Indian women is a prestige issue. Indian women are known worldwide for having the most beautiful and long hair in the world. Hair is the crowning glory for any Indian Women. However, it is only for religious reasons that a woman tonsures her hair. In ancient times widows’ head were tonsured to mark her as a widow.

If a woman willfully tonsures her hair for none of the above reasons, her demand or claim must be really important. While making the demands for a total ban on liquor in the Buldana District, around four to five women and four to five men tonsured their head.

The banner under which the men and women had taken out a Morcha was Matrutirtha Va Vidarbha Pandhari, Buldana District. They demanded that the ministers discuss and ban liquor sale in Buldana District.
