In a striking incident from Greater Noida, a family has reportedly been socially boycotted by villagers for playing a DJ at a wedding ceremony, allegedly violating a prior panchayat directive.

The case pertains to Nawada village under the Dankaur police station area. According to reports, a village panchayat had earlier imposed a ban on playing DJs at weddings and other events. However, the family went ahead and used a DJ during a recent wedding, prompting strong opposition from the community.

Following the incident, a panchayat was convened where, by unanimous decision, it was announced that the family would face social boycott. The decision was also publicly announced across the village through traditional means of communication.

As part of the boycott, villagers have decided not to invite the family to any social or community functions. The move is being seen as a strict enforcement of the panchayat's earlier order.

Sources say the ban on DJs was introduced about two months ago after discussions within the village community. The latest action has sparked debate around the extent of such restrictions and the consequences of defying them.
