Although, mob action is not justified, this also reflects peoples' strong determination for maintaining decorum and propriety in social relations like marriage. The fear of social reaction like mob action prevents social anarchy.

True, but this is not the way to maintain any kind of decorum. Such actions in fact pass a wrong message to others, that they can punish the women in any manner they so wish and they can get away with it, all under the guise of trying maintain propriety of marriage institutions! Such incidents will only lead to increase in violence against women.

This is not a case of violence against women. In fact, woman's husband was also beaten up. However, I agree that people should not take law in their own hands. But when law makers indulge in immoral activities, people cannot be expected to observe restraint.

I would never suggest Panchayats to interfere in such matters because they shall make the things worse only. They have no idea about modern day's affair and end up invariably against the women. No way.

I agree Gulshan, that the couple is not innocent and they were indeed wrong. But by behaving in this manner, aren't we going back to dark ages when such offense was punishable in public, this incident is only a step short of public lynching and stoning men and women conducting adultery, which is still practiced in some Muslim countries!

In India, we have a system of a Panchayat in every village, where such matters could be resolved. Now, there are laws against them, so why gather a mob and beat them like beasts??

This is not a good thing what he had done. She had taken a correct decision by beating him. As this could be a lesson to other people.
