Brides can now apply wooden bats on their husbands if they turn alcoholic.
The wooden bat, which is commonly used to beat clothes while washing to take dirt out of it, has now been gifted to newly wedded brides to apply on their alcoholic husbands.
Panchayeti raj minister Gopal Bhargava presented the wooden bats to nearly 700 brides at a mass marriage ceremony in Madhya Pradesh in India asking them to use it whenever their husbands turn violent or harass them and refuse to mend their ways.
According to Bhargava, this wooden bat is a perfect gift as he had earlier received several complaints from women about their alcoholic husbands.
So he ordered 10,000 bats to be gifted to women 'suffering at the hands of their alcoholic husbands'.
