Mehandi created flutters across the state


Several women from the different parts of the state, got allergic yesterday, when they applied mehandi on their hands. This lead to confusion among women across the state and many rumours came into circulation.

On the eve of Ramzan, Muslim women put mehandi on their hands and feet. But this custom gave nightmares to some, yesterday. In various districts of the state, Muslim women, who put mehandi got allergic and skin rash. They went to hospitals, where the doctors found that excessive use of colorants in the mehandi is the culprit. This situation gave a chance to some lumped elements to create rumours that those who put mehandi will be infected and contamination of milk is the reason of allergy. Vijayawad police got hold of mehandi packets and sent them to Forensic laboratory. They also arrested some manufacturers of mehandi, as well as those who circulated rumours.

Elected representatives of the respective areas visited the victims and promised to take action. The issue has become hot topic among women folks across the state.
