An Indian bride has walked out of her wedding
after her bridegroom-to-be failed to solve a
simple maths problem, according to police in
Uttar Pradesh.
The bride asked the groom to add 15 and six.
When he replied 17, she called off the marriage.
Reports say the groom’s family tried to convince
the bride to return, but she refused saying the
man was illiterate.
Local police said they mediated between the
families, and both sides returned all the gifts
given before the wedding.
Most marriages in India are arranged by the
families, and it is common for a bride and groom
to get married without spending time in each
other’s company.
A police official of Rasoolabad village where the
incident happened told BBC Hindi that local
resident Mohar Singh had fixed his daughter
Lovely’s wedding to a man called Ram Baran.
“But just before the marriage ceremony Lovely
came to know that Ram Baran is illiterate and
she refused to marry,” he said.
Mohar Singh told the Associated Press news
agency that the “groom’s family had kept us in
the dark about his poor education”.
“Even a first grader can answer this [the maths
test],” he said.
Last month, another bride in Uttar Pradesh
married a guest at her wedding after her groom-
to-be had a seizure and collapsed.
Reports said the groom was epileptic and he had
kept the information from the bride and her
family.
