Gujarat woman to ‘marry herself’, claims it would be first ‘sologamy’ in India

A 24-year-old woman has created a buzz in Gujarat's Vadodara city with the announcement that she would be marrying herself by undergoing traditional rituals of a Hindu wedding on June 11.

Experts, however, said that a ‘sologamy’ or self-marriage would not have any legal standing in India.
