Woman beaten to death in India for allowing daughter to wear jeans

 
In a very conservative town in India, a mother has been killed for permitting her daughter to wear jeans.
55-year-old Kamlesh Dubey was dragged out of her home and beaten to death by a mob after an argument with her neighbour who objected to daughter Gunjan wearing jeans instead of traditional sari.

The argument escalated and even Gunjan, 20, and her father Netrapal were wounded in the fight that broke out in the city of Aligarh in Uttar Pradesh, the IBI Times reports.
