Tamil Nadu Forms Panel to Draft Law Against Honour Killings

Tamil Nadu Forms Panel to Draft Law Against Honour Killings

Imagine some people are hurting or even killing others because they don't agree with who they are marrying.

This is called 'honour killing'.

The government in Tamil Nadu wants to make a special new rule, like a law, to stop this from happening.

So, they've created a team of smart people, like judges and other experts.

This team will listen to everyone – politicians, lawyers, people who have been hurt, and regular people.

They will look at old cases to understand why this happens.

Then, they will suggest exactly what kind of new law should be made.

They have to do this in three months.

The goal is to make sure no one is hurt for their choices and that everyone gets treated fairly.
