Shocking elopement and marriage in Uttar Pradesh
In Rampur, Uttar Pradesh, a 55-year-old man secretly married his son's fiancee and ran away with her, telling everyone he was just taking her to the doctor.
Their unexpected move has stirred up a lot of tension in their village.
Things got messy when the couple returned home
After disappearing for two days, the couple's return led to fights at home—arguments broke out between the son and his father, and things got heated between the new bride and her mother-in-law.
The situation got so intense that villagers had to step in to calm things down.
Couple are now living elsewhere
The local panchayat held a meeting and decided to expel both of them from the village for breaking social norms.
Now living elsewhere, the couple's actions have left their families in a tough spot—the bride's family isn't speaking out because of money worries.
This is just one more example of how relationships can shake up tradition in unexpected ways.
