Following Islamic principles, the grooms stated their intention to encourage simplicity in marriage. "We wanted to set an example," said the oldest brother. "People frequently sell their land to pay for their weddings. We intended to demonstrate that marriages might be straightforward and free of needless financial stress.
Notably, Punjab's combined wedding ceremony was performed without a dowry, underscoring its simplicity.
Meanwhile, an odd marital disagreement has made waves in Uttar Pradesh. Forty days after her wedding, a lady filed for divorce, claiming that her husband's severe lack of personal hygiene was the cause. The woman told india Today that her husband only took one or two baths a month, which resulted in an awful body odor and made living together uncomfortable.
She added that her husband's disregard for basic hygiene had led to frequent fights and that she was seeking assistance from the agra Family Counseling Center. "I can no longer bear to live in such conditions," she said.
The spouse acknowledged that he often takes a bath just once or twice a month when questioned by authorities. He disclosed that he applies Gangajal, or holy water from the ganges to himself once a week to compensate for his irregular bathing schedule. He also said that, at his wife's urging, he had taken six baths in the 40 days of their marriage—much more often than he usually did.
After a few weeks of marriage, the woman returned to her parents' house due to increasingly heated disputes. After that, her family started divorce procedures against the spouse and lodged a charge of dowry harassment at the local police station.
