More than 50 villagers from Morna, Gejha, Bishanpura, Hajipur, Nithari, Baruala and Sahdara participated at the workshop. Seventy-year-old Ratan Singh Choudhary who chaired the workshop said, “Nobody has right to kill anybody but we have to search the reasons for honour killing.”

Mohinder Mukhiya blamed upbringing and freedom to girls as causes of rising elopement cases.
