A young woman Sanjana (21) shoots a direct question-‘Is love marriage a bad thing?’. She got married to Neeraj Panwar in April-2021. Grieving over loss of her husband, Sanjana recalled their marriage in April-2021, threats from family, and questioned what was wrong in getting married to a person she loved.
“We got married because we loved each other. My brothers had been threatening to kill us both. They said their name has been stained. We have lodged a complaint at police station who have assured they will not let anything happen to us. But what did the police do? They did not do anything,” said Ms Sanjana. The young couple’s two-month-old son squeaked as she spoke.
When asked why her family members gave the threats, she said they were against the love marriage. Police called her family members for counseling but they have not attended it.
