The Panchayat of Mathura's Madora village on Wednesday ordered the imposition of a hefty penalty on anyone who indulges in cow slaughter and also on girls who use mobile phones while walking on the street. However, anyone found indulging in cow slaughter or cow theft would have to shell out Rs. While, the Panchayat members also decided to impose Rs. 21,000 on girls who will be seen talking on mobile phones while walking on the street, in order to reduce the rate of crime against girls and encourages elopement. The quantum of punishment apart from the penalty would be decided by the entire Panchayat.
