In a remote village, women observe a five‑day tradition of not wearing clothes, a practice rooted in local beliefs and rituals.
In a small village tucked away in rural India, women have been following an unusual custom for years: they go without clothes for five consecutive days.
The practice, which takes place during a specific season, is believed to be a form of devotion and purification. According to local elders, the tradition honors a deity associated with fertility and prosperity.
During the five days, the women are supported by the community, who provide food and shelter. The village also sets up a modest boundary to ensure privacy and safety.
The story has attracted media attention, prompting discussions about cultural practices and how they coexist with modern norms.
