MAUN: A six months long marriage ban that has been in effect since September 2013 is taking its toll on hospitality businesses and related sectors that are now feeling the brunt of the six months ban on their businesses.

Now various businesses in Maun are up in arms and are trying to force the Batawana Royal family to rescind its decision.
