Childless couple shaved off bark of a mango tree |
This blind belief in hearsay has been leading
childless couples to procure the bark of the person hanged himself, the whole
operation having to be clandestinely done as there is still so much social
stigma associated with being childless.
Roopchand of Kalvathanda in Dilawarpur mandal said
that when his uncle Rathod Yashwanthrao,
committed suicide by hanging himself- due to inability to repay the mounted
debts and failed crops- a childless couple had shaved
off the bark of the mango tree from
which he had hanged himself.
Roopchand said, he had done this too after an
elderly woman hanged herself at the outskirts of the village, and he had his
wife were blessed with two children.
Medical experts have been decrying such recourse to
blind superstition and suggesting that the
authorities concerned create awareness among the rural people on staying
away from irrational methods and go in
instead for medical treatment for infertility.
