ICHEOKU says an Indian man in Uttar Pradesh whose bride died during their marriage ceremony soon after placing a customary garland of flowers on his neck, immediately took her younger sister and wedded her right there. The bride had suffered a cardiac arrest, then slumped and died. But instead of suspending or even canceling the wedding all together due to the shocking sad loss or first evacuating her body to a mortuary, they simply put her body in one room and the dead bride's younger sister was called upon as a substitute bride and the wedding continued. If Indian people have done anything so outrageous before that dumbfounded the world, this one incident definitely tops them all.
The groom who was supposed to be in utter shock and grieving, immediately married the dead bride's younger sister while her dead body was still sprawled out cold in an adjacent room from the wedding area. How dare this guy do such a heartless thing to a lady who he once professed love for and who was performing marital rites to him when she suddenly collapsed and died. What manner of a monster would do such a thing, not care about his beloved bride who suddenly collapsed and died on their wedding day at their wedding alter. Yet, he had the temerity to summarily take the dead bride's younger sister and wedded her right there on the same spot where her big sister, his former bride, had just died a few moments ago. There was no grieving and there was no hurt feeling by this fella that his bride had just died. How could somebody be this cold hearted. What is really going on in that land of Hindustan.
ICHEOKU says is still in shock that marriage could be treated so cavalierly in that Modi's country. It is sad that women have not been fully liberated in India that they still suffer such disposable status and servile treatment that a ceremony is preferred to their life as human beings. So, it is all about the ceremony and not the marital union of two persons who fell in love with one another that matters to these people. Why are women in India still regarded as mere commodities that are disposable that they have no real value for the men of India. But must every woman in India marry for crying out loud? Why should they when their lives do not matter to the men who accept their dowries. This guy should be arrested because if he could be this mean to his dead bride, it is possible too that he might have done something sinister that caused the death of the bride. What a despicable heartless monster he is. Shame on him.
