There are many such traditions in different countries around the world, which are surprising to know about. In some of these, after the death of the husband, the fingers of the wife’s hands are cut off, and in some places, a ring is put on the lips of women. After knowing about all these, it can be said that on one hand man has made a lot of progress, but on the other hand many strange practices are still going on even after hundreds of years. Today we are going to tell you about one such shocking tradition, where the chest of young girls is burnt with a hot stone. This cruel tradition has been going on for years. Mothers themselves prepare their daughters for this. These people argue that all this is done to protect girls from rape.
Recently, some posts related to this also went viral. In such a situation, let us tell you that according to the report of the United Nation, there are about 38-39 lakh women around the world who have suffered this torture. This cruel torture is given to girls in the name of saving them from rape. For this, their chest is made flat with hot iron and stone. According to the UN, this tradition is followed in many places in the United Kingdom as well as in backward countries like Nigeria, South Africa, Cameroon. People who follow this tradition believe that by branding the chest of girls, they start looking like boys, due to which incidents like rape with them are negligible.
Years ago when this report came out, many people opposed this tradition. During that time, famous writer Laila Hussain had called this method foolish and said that by doing this people think their girls will remain safe, but they can fall prey to many other diseases. However, in Britain, Ireland and many other countries, many charities, women and girls development organizations are working to save girls from such atrocities. People associated with this organization are working with the police, social activists, health department and schools to tell the girls and their families about the harm caused by this.
This happens with girls between the ages of 10 and 15!
According to the data available on the United Nation website, in most cases, mother and daughter together secretly get this cruel work done. This secret always remains between them. To make the chest flat, girls aged 10 to 15 years are branded with hot iron or stone, which can prove to be dangerous for their lives. Due to this tradition, they can suffer from cancer, boils, itching as well as ulcers, breast infection, severe fever. Not only this, the breasts can also disappear completely from their body, due to which they will have to face a lot of problems after becoming a mother.
