as the bridegroom in a kind gesture as the bridegroom-to-be
failed to turn up to tie the knot on Wednesday, Times of India
reported.
Ponradha, 23, daughter of Palpandi of Lakshmimanagaram
near Arumuganeri in Kanyakumari district was betrothed to be
married to Sithiraivelu, 35, son of Jayaraman of Lakshmipuram in Kayalpattinam of the same district. The
wedding was to be held on Wednesday and arrangements
were on in full swing in the bride's hometown.
They had prepared to welcome the bridegroom on Tuesday
evening and were awaiting his arrival when they were
informed that he had gone missing. Sithiraivelu's family had
claimed to the bride's family that Sitharaivelu had a quarrel
with them on Monday and walked out of their home. Though
they had been expecting him to come back as usual, he did
not return, they had further said. Hearing this, the bride's
family went into a frenzy, as a stopped marriage would affect
the girl's future.
The news spread around the town of Lakshmimanagaram like
a wildfire when Sivakumar, a relative of the bride who had
come to take part in the wedding, agreed to marry Ponradha
after his relatives persuaded him to do so. The wedding then
took place as per the schedule, much to the relief of the
family. The other guests who had come there also
congratulated and appreciated Sivakumar for his timely
gesture.
