A resident of Punhana in Haryana, Mohammad Ijaz said that hair cover is the new trend in the area and also gave a reason for it, he said, “If the ghost can’t see the hair, it cannot chop it either.” In Ghaziabad too some cases of mysterious hair chopping have emerged. 60-year-old Hasina Khatun claimed that she has instructed all the women to cover their head tightly even when sleeping.
Also, some of the residents of Laxmi Nagar offered puja to Goddess Kali, one Santosh Yadav said, “Some women have also begun tying garlic on their arms or on their plaited hair”. On the other hand, a resident of Bijwasan holds black magic responsible for these incidents, “Black magic is behind these incidents. A magician probably needs women’s hair.”
