In a shocking incident at a wedding in Hasilpur, a groom attempted to take his own life by consuming poisonous pills after the bride’s family refused to proceed with the marriage due to unmet Haqq Mehar demands. The tragic turn of events has raised concerns about the growing trend of excessive Haqq Mehar demands and their devastating consequences.
According to reports, the bride’s family had requested Rs. 5 lakh and a 5-marla house in the bride’s name as Haqq Mehar, a mandatory payment made by the groom to the bride at the time of marriage. When the groom’s family declined these terms, the bride’s family decided not to marry off their daughter, leaving the groom devastated.
In a heart-wrenching moment, the groom attempted to end his life by consuming poisonous pills. Fortunately, his life is not in danger, and he is receiving medical attention.
This incident highlights the pressing issue of Haqq Mehar’s demands, which have become a significant burden for many families. The practice, intended to provide financial security for the bride, has been exploited by some families, leading to unbearable pressure on the groom’s family.
The incident has sparked a debate about the need for regulation and awareness about Haqq Mehar’s demands. Experts argue that such demands should be reasonable and not exceed the financial capabilities of the groom’s family.
