Two men were booked on Friday for violating various lockdown restrictions by organising a mass feast in a village near here on the 12th day of their mother's death as per the Hindu religion customs, said police.

Besides the two sons of the deceased women, the police also booked the caterer and the tent service provider, they said.

Police said Kango ka Navora village resident Hanski Devi had died 12 days ago.

Accordingly, her two sons Punaram and Laduram had organised mass feats, in which a large number of villagers had been invited, they said.

On getting the information, police and the SDM rushed to the spot, and dispersed the people.

We have seized all the material and have registered a case against two sons, besides the caterer and the tent service provider, they said.
