Village without Doors

India - There is a village in India where none of the 300 buildings – homes, educational institutions, and even banks – have doors. Cash is stored in unlocked containers, as are valuable pieces of gold jewellery.

Even most of the public toilets in Shani Shingnapur village square have no doors. 

“For reasons of privacy and following requests by women, we recently agreed to put a thin curtain near the entrance, but not doors because that would go against our belief,” said a village shopkeeper.

Some villagers do put up loose door panels against their door frames, but this is done only at night, to keep out wild animals and stray dogs.
