JAIPUR, India (AP) — Police say a man upset over his daughter's lifestyle chopped her head off with a sword and then paraded it through his village before surrendering to authorities in western India.

Marble miner Ogad Singh's 20-year-old daughter had been living with her parents in the Rajasthani village of Dungarji after leaving her husband two years ago.

Police Superintendent Umesh Ojha says Singh was upset by his daughter having affairs with men, and became enraged when she eloped with one of them two weeks ago.

Ojha says Singh forced her to return home Sunday, and beheaded her Monday with a sword.

Rapidly modernizing India faces increasing social clashes as youths resist traditions like arranged marriage or limits on women venturing outside their parents' or husbands' homes.

Sad but true about the modernisation issues. It's actually not so much a generational clash (although that is a large factor) as it is the result of the country developing such a huge dichotomy between conventions in rural and more urban communities in India. Socially, many villages can be generations "behind" life in the cities.

That being said, hacking off one's daughter's head over this matter would still be inexcusable even a century ago in most cases. The suitor, on the other hand...
