The ceremony is the social heartbeat of the community. 'Wore' is expected and encouraged here as a way to maintain social ties. In the city, 'wore' moves fast through taxis and telegram groups. It's more about celebrity news and politics than village life. 'Wore' serves as a vital news network. A person coming from the market is expected to share 'wore' with everyone they meet on the path.
