From a groom’s deceit to an unnecessary ruckus in the functions, many reasons compelled these brides to walk out of the marriages. Take a look at these seven instances that occurred in and around UP when women called off their weddings in last 20 days.

2. Bullet and Brawl!
In a marriage ceremony going on in Hayathnagar, the groom’s brother engaged in a fight with the bride’s brother where the reason was as futile as picking up bread from the tandoor. The heated exchange escalated to an extent that police authorities had to intervene to settle things between the families. Later, it was alleged that the groom was pressuring the bride’s family to get him a Royal Enfield Bullet. While efforts were being made for reconciliation, the bride simply refused to get married.
3. One more ‘Bullet’ To Shoot Up Marriage

5. Illiteracy Costed a Marriage
On January 22, a bride withdrew her marriage after her brother learned that the groom was an illiterate lad. He even gave the groom ₹2100 and asked him to count in front of him which he failed to do. Thus, his illiteracy cost him a marriage.
