Panchayat decision and scope
The resolution was adopted by the Sundhamata Patti panchayat of the Chaudhary clan, which exercises informal influence over 15 villages in the Bhinmal–Khanpur belt. Under the diktat, daughters-in-law and young married women are barred from using camera-enabled smartphones at weddings, public functions, neighbourhood visits or community gatherings. They are permitted to use only basic keypad phones for voice calls. The proclamation was publicly announced by panch Himmataram and endorsed by elders present at the meeting.
