Apparently everything was fine but the groom disappeared just in time for his wedding and only told close friends that the wedding was cancelled. On the other hand, the poor girl had prepared the equipment for dowry etc. with great difficulty and life’s savings had been spent on the ceremony, on the other hand the guests had also arrived. On this occasion, the bride’s father-in-law offered his marriage to the girl’s family, which was accepted. In this way, the husband’s father-in-law married a woman named SA.

The girl’s brother, Vastu Ahmed, told reporters that his sister had married the father of the absconding boy. The boy’s father said that lakhs of rupees had been spent on the ceremony and there was uncertainty in the air and hence he decided to go ahead with the marriage.

People on social media have expressed mixed reactions to this news. According to them, this is a money-saving strategy. While some people have shown sympathy for the bride who had to make such a big compromise.
