I think it's ridiculous that the Supreme Court wants to limit the height of dahi handis to just 20 feet. That isn't even dangerous. How can we celebrate any of our festivals without the threat of death or paralysis hanging over us? It's also bizarre that people below the age of 18 are being banned from participating in this extremely healthy sport-like activity that involves climbing upon people's shoulders to break a pot. If people below 18 aren't allowed to risk their lives and limbs, so other people can capture this on their smart phones, does India even qualify as a democracy anymore?

The court's reasons make no sense. They say this is not a sport, but how does that matter if it's just something we do because we are Indian? Whistling at women is not a sport either, but so many of our countrymen do it right through the year, don't they? So many men molest women on trains and crowded streets too. These aren't sports, but being sexually repressed has always been part of our culture, hasn't it? Why can't the honourable courts understand this?
