A wedding celebration in the Gandhi Park area of Aligarh, Uttar Pradesh, descended into chaos on Sunday night when an unexpected intervention by the bride’s friend led to a dramatic breakdown of the marriage.
Off-Stage Drama Unfolds
During a ring ceremony and baby shower at a local hotel, the bride and groom were on stage when a young woman in a white shirt and pants suddenly approached. In a shocking turn of events, she grabbed the bride’s hand, forcibly dragging her away from the stage and locking both of them in a room. Witnesses reported that the sudden scuffle left guests and family members bewildered.
Allegations and Family Uproar
The friend, later identified as the bride’s confidante, claimed that she and the bride had been in a four-year-long romantic relationship. According to her, the revelation of this alleged relationship triggered violent reactions from the bride’s family, who began assaulting her. However, the bride vehemently denied the claim, stating that she had no knowledge of any such relationship. Despite her denial, the friend presented evidence to support her assertion.
Groom’s Breaking Point
The incident proved to be the tipping point for the groom, who, upon learning of the dispute, decided to call off the marriage. The wedding, which had been arranged between a postgraduate girl from Pahasu in Bulandshahr and a boy from Quarsi, was abruptly cancelled amid rising tensions and public disarray.
Police Intervention
As the altercation escalated, someone alerted the police. After an hour of being locked inside the room, the friend emerged and reiterated her claims of a longstanding relationship with the bride. The situation quickly spiraled as family members reacted with further violence. Police arrived on the scene just as the bride’s family confined the friend in another room, ultimately leading to the cancellation of the wedding.
