Indian weddings are a truly inexhaustible topic. Recently in in Uttar Pradesh, an unpleasant story happened: the groom canceled the wedding for a very strange reason, with which the bride's parents do not agree.

Participants of the story live in the rural area of Tirva-Kotvali Kannauj district of Uttar Pradesh. According to Amarujala, the groom canceled a wedding just because his fiancée got low scores on midterm exams in 12th grade.

However, the injured party claims that the groom's family canceled the wedding solely due to the fact that they exhibited dowry requirements were not fully met. And this despite the fact that the bride and groom performed the Godh Bharai ritual back in early December.

Godh Bharai - a solemn ceremony in which the mother groom accepts his son's future wife into his family. Cancel wedding after such a ritual is a great insult.

It is not surprising that the father of the bride considered himself entitled to file complaint against the groom and his family and demand strict action from police. According to the statement, he arranged the marriage of his daughter Sonya to Sonu, the son of Ramshankar from the village of Baganwa. On December 4, 2022, families spent the Godh Bharai ceremony, for which the father spent more than 60,000 rupees. Also he gave the groom a golden ring worth 15,000 rupees.

However, a few days after the ceremony, the groom's family demanded a dowry. The father of the bride admitted that he would give more can’t do anything, and then the groom’s family broke off the engagement - saying that girls low marks in the midterm exams for the matriculation certificate. The groom was persuaded to change his mind, but he was adamant.

The local police chief says that if the parties do not come to an agreement, he will be forced to take action.

I wonder what. Public condemnation? Fine? father brides will be forced to pay a dowry? Will the groom be required to return the ring? Suggest your options.
