Which of the following state is trying to revive a “khujli ghar “, a traditional form of punishment that seeks to check crime with an itch in time?

A. Telangana

B. Uttar Pradesh

C. Nagaland

D. Orissa

Explanation:

Some villages in Nagaland are trying to revive a traditional form of punishment that seeks to check crime with an itch in time. Social offenders or violators of Naga customary laws have over the ages dreaded a cramped, triangular cage made from the logs of Masang-fung, a local tree that people avoid because of the irritation it causes. Such itchy cages are referred to as khujli ghar in Nagamese — a pidgin lingua franca — but each Naga community has its own name. The Aos, one of the major tribes of Nagaland, call it Shi-ki that means flesh-house.
