Srinagar: Al-Noor Yateem Trust, a non-governmental organization, organised mass marriage of 100 brides mostly orphans and from underprivileged backgrounds across different districts of the state.
The ceremony was held at a Marriage Hall in Bemina locality of Srinagar.
Chairman of 'Al-Noor Yateem Trust,' Shabir Ahmed said that his organization has been embracing orphaned girls as their own, making it an annual tradition to facilitate their weddings.
"Every year, under the supervision of their legal guardians, we solemnize the 'Nikah' ceremony for each bride. While 'Nikah' is a blessing, we acknowledge that, in today's society, it can be a burden for these less fortunate girls," Ahmed said.
