  The panchayat of Lakh village of Muzaffarnagar, about 100 km from New Delhhi, held mobile phones responsible for the increase in elopements and marriages without the sanction of community elders.

  (印度北方邦)穆扎法尔讷格尔的朗克村距离新德里大概有100公里,这个村的村委会成员于22日开会,他们认为使用手机促使更多年轻人私奔,还有更多年轻人没有得到村庄长者的同意就擅自结婚。

 "The panchayat has imposed a ban on the usage of mobile phones by unmarried girls to prevent them from eloping with young boys against the wishes of their parents," a panchayat spokesman said.

  村委会发言人Rajender Malick说:"村委会制定了'禁止未婚女孩使用手机'的新村规,这样可以防止未婚女孩违背父母意愿与年轻男孩私奔"。

  The decision triggered angry reactions from women's groups as well as from many village women.

  这一决定激起了妇女团体和许多其他村庄的妇女的愤怒,她们强烈反对这一村规。
