But now groom Shahnawaz’s family has lodged a criminal complaint against elders of the community for ostracising them. “We have lodged an FIR on the basis of the complaint filed by Mohammed Shafi, the father of the groom,” says Bundi’s Kotwali SHO Surendra Danodiya.
According to the complaint, Mr Shahnawaz, an engineer, befriended Dr Rashida on Internet. They married in Budni as per the Islamic traditions.
The groom’s father said when he hosted dinner, the community elders boycotted and said any one who participate in the dinner would be fined. He said the elders termed such a marri-age anti-traditional and warned if anyone supports them, they will be ostracised.
