To protect the villagers from the demons, a deity named ‘Lahua Ghond’ appeared. The god defeated the demons. Now the villagers believe that if the women wear beautiful clothes, even today the demons can pick them up and take them away, that is why women remain without clothes. On the other hand, if a woman wants to cover her body, she can simply use a sash made of wool.
