Groom parties till late during ‘baarat’, disgruntled bride marries another man

A bride in Rajasthan’s Churu district refused to marry her groom after his drunken dancing delayed the baarat (wedding procession) for hours. The incident occurred in Rajgarh tehsil’s Chelana village.

On Sunday, May 15, Sunil, the groom, and his relatives arrived in the bride’s village.

The baarat set off for the bride’s house at 9 pm, but the groom and his friends got drunk and continued to dance to the DJ’s beats, causing the procession to be delayed for hours.

The muhurat, or auspicious time to begin wedding pheras, was 1.15 am, and the groom showed no signs of slowing down. The bride’s side, as well as the bride herself, had enough of the commotion caused by the baarat’s drunken dancing.

Frustrated with being kept waiting, the bride decided to return the baarat. Her family then made the decision to marry her off to someone else.
