'the groom remained adamant, refusing to go through with the wedding unless the vehicle was provided. Devastated, the bride—who was already dressed in her wedding attire fell unconscious multiple times due to intense distress. Her condition deteriorated, and she had to be admitted to a hospital. On Tuesday morning, the bride's family filed a formal complaint at the local police station against the groom and his family, demanding legal action. The incident falls under the jurisdiction of the Nagar Kotwali police station. After she fainted, her family members rushed her to the hospital. Here are the details of the case: Mirza Ajmal Beg, a resident of the Kataria neighborhood, works as a driver. His family includes his wife, Najo Khatoon, their daughter, Naushaba Mirza Beg, and a son. About a year ago, Ajmal had arranged his daughter Naushaba’s marriage to Mohammad Salman, the son of Mohammad Aslam—a resident of Gorakhpur. Salman, the eldest of four siblings (three brothers and one sister), is currently studying abroad. The wedding (nikah) was scheduled for Monday, October 26, and a marriage hall in the city had been booked for the occasion. The bride, with her hands adorned in henna (mehndi), was ready for the ceremony, while relatives waited for the arrival of the wedding procession. When the procession failed to arrive by the scheduled time, the bride’s family contacted the groom’s family. For a long while, the groom’s side kept stalling, claiming that the procession was on its way. Waiting until 6:00 AM The bride’s mother, Najo Khatoon, stated, "After midnight, the groom’s family explicitly declared that the wedding would not take place unless a 'Thar' was provided as dowry. Upon hearing that the procession would not arrive and that the marriage was being called off, my daughter collapsed and fainted. We have since admitted her to the hospital." Mother says: The groom used to stay at our home for 15 days at a time The bride’s mother, Najo Khatoon, shared that after the marriage was fixed, her prospective son-in-law would frequently visit their home, often staying for as long as 15 days at a stretch. Initially, the groom and his family had stated that they did not want anything, requesting only a simple *nikah* (wedding ceremony). In response, the bride’s family explained that since she was their only daughter, they intended to provide a motorcycle as a dowry, in accordance with their means. At that time, the groom’s family had agreed. The mother recounted that the elders of their family pleaded with the groom’s side—even folding their hands in supplication—but the groom’s family remained adamant about their demands and ultimately refused to go through with the wedding. All the preparations, including the food and the wedding band, went to waste. The bride’s mother, Najo Khatoon, stated that despite all their pleas, the groom remained unyielding.
