Odisha Family Shunned, Forced Head Shave Over Inter-Caste Marriage

In a village in India, a family faced a harsh situation because their daughter married someone from a different caste.

The villagers got angry and punished the family by not letting them be part of the community.

To be accepted back, the family had to do a 'purification' ritual, which included sacrificing an animal and shaving their heads.

Officials say the family did this willingly, but it shows how some people are treated unfairly based on old traditions.
