A peculiar case came to light in Barabanki, UP, where the controversy over dowry in the wedding pavilion increased so much that the bride started crying. Then the lover present on the spot filled the demand of the bride in front of everyone. This incident created a ruckus in the pavilion and Barat returned to Barang. The matter remains a matter of discussion in the area.
Actually, the whole matter is of Banki town of Kotwali area. The marriage of Naresh, the daughter of Naresh, a resident of North Tola, was decided to Vikas Soni of Kothi area. On the evening of 24 September, Barat reached and rituals were going on in the pavilion. Then the groom side demanded one and a half lakh rupees cash and one and a half tola gold.
When the demand was not met, the groom’s side threatened to withdraw the procession. When the controversy increased, the bride Mohini started crying. Crying, she reached the sister’s brother-in-law Shivansh. Then Shivansh filled his demand in front of everyone.
At the same time, the groom’s father Shivkumar Soni made serious allegations against the girl side. He said that we had reached the procession at 8:30 pm. There was a demand of Rs 501 to every woman and Rs 5,001 in the groom unloading. We said- we are poor people, we cannot give so much money. Anyway, we never asked for 1 rupee from him. After which we were tortured and suddenly someone else was filled the demand of the girl. All this seems to be a conspiracy already fixed.
The boy’s father further said that even after the marriage was decided, the girl continued to talk to our boy. But in the pavilion, we were kept sitting on the roof and another drama was going on below. We were forcibly insulted and forced to return the procession. On the other hand, as soon as the incident was reported, the Banki Chowki police of the city Kotwali area reached the spot and pacified the commotion. The young man who demanded the bride was brought into custody from the road and brought to the post and his statement was recorded there.
