One groom, two brides: A unique marriage in Kondagaon

Monday, 20 January 2020 | Staff Reporter | KONDAGAON

nIn a unique marriage, a youth married two girls after both agreed to stay together with him.

Incidentally, one of the girls even has a seven-day-old baby reportedly fathered by the groom.

The incident has been reported from village Kosmi under Vishrampuri police station limits of Kondagaon district.

The youth Kishore Kumar Netam married Poonam of the same village and also Kavita from village Marangpuri, situated at around 15 kilometres from his native village. It is  reported that Netam was in relationship with Kavita.

As per reports, Marangpuri resident Kavita, just a few days before the marriage had given birth to a child and child’s naming   ceremony had not been held as per local traditions on the sixth day.

She came to know that her lover Kishore Kumar is marrying a girl from his own village, so she objected to it and asked him to marry her.

The youth then agreed to marry both and held          discussions with his family members and relatives citing the situation.

His parents agreed to it along with other relatives. Then based on Gondwana marriage ceremony, the   marriage was conducted with participation of both girls’ parents and villagers.

Village Sarpanch Veer Singh Netam said the       marriage became a point of discussion among villagers as few of them raised objection, but after observing the prevailing situation, they agreed.
