Bhilwara. No processions were held, no rituals were performed and no auspicious time was observed… The discussion of this unique marriage is everywhere in Bhilwara, which took place considering Babasaheb Ambedkar as an ideal and the Constitution as a witness. On the 132nd birth anniversary of Constitution maker Baba Saheb Bhimrao Ambedkar (Ambedkar Jayanti), a father got his daughter married without any auspicious time in Bagore town of the district. Considering Ambedkar as his ideal, he made the bride and groom take oath on the stage. Seeing this unique marriage and knowing about it, everyone is praising this family.
Generally, marriages take place with many rituals. Apart from these customs, the trend is going on these days in which marriages without dowry are discussed. In Bagore of Dhar Bhilwara, talks are being held everywhere about the marriage that took place without Pandit’s mantras, customs and all the traditions like dowry. The youth is talking about whether this could become a new trend!
The marriage of Mamta Meghvanshi of Bagore town was fixed with Prakash Chand of Murlia village of Kotdi subdivision, then Mamta’s father Uday Lal Meghvanshi got the marriage done without any ceremony on the day of Ambedkar Jayanti. The bride and groom came on the stage and garlanded each other while taking the oath of Babasaheb’s ideals. In this marriage neither Toran was installed nor seven rounds were taken. The groom’s father Ramchandra Balai is working in the Government Secretariat in Jaipur.
Meghvanshi said, “I read the Indian Constitution and being inspired by Dr. Ambedkar’s social reform work, we both want to give a new message to the society together. Breaking all the traditions with mutual consent, we got the marriage done without dowry, without any religious rituals. Others should also be inspired by this.
