A wedding in Surat was unexpectedly shifted to a police station after a food shortage disrupted the ceremony. The incident took place in Varachha, Surat on Sunday (February 2).
Anjali Kumari and Rahul Pramod Mahanto were set to exchange garlands at Shri Lakshmi Narayan Hall in Surat’s Varachha area when a heated argument over shortage of food broke out between their families.
After that, the situation escalated, and the groom's family refused to take the bride along and left the venue. The bride's family was in shock as the celebrations came to an abrupt halt. Left with no choice, distraught, Anjali Kumari called the police helpline number to report the incident.
Responding promptly to the distressed call, the local police called both families to the police station. However, the groom's family stood firm and refused to let the wedding continue. The police counselled the couple but the groom was hesitant to return to the wedding venue due to concerns about further clashes between the families.
In a heartwarming moment, the local police decided to step in and facilitate the completion of the wedding rituals. The Varacha Police Station officers made the arrangements for the wedding ceremony at the police station.
Harish Sanghavi, Minister of State- Home, Industries, Transport, Youth & Sports (I/C) took to X account to share this news. He wrote, ''From sounding Strange at first sight to Wow!
