      <title>Indian bride calls off wedding after groom slaps her for dancing, marries cousin instead
</title>
      <link>https://english.aaj.tv/news/30276778/</link>
      <description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;A valiant bride in India's southern Tamil Nadu state called off her wedding last week after she got into a violent argument with the groom who slapped her for dancing at a wedding function. She asked the groom’s family to leave, but not before slapping him back.&lt;/strong&gt; &lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;According to the &lt;a href="https://www.republicworld.com/entertainment-news/whats-viral/tamil-nadu-woman-marries-cousin-after-groom-slaps-her-for-dancing-at-wedding-function-articleshow.html"&gt;Republic World&lt;/a&gt;, the arranged wedding was to take place on January 20th. When the bride and her family arrived for a function on the 19th, they were dancing at the ceremony. The groom didn’t approve of the bride dancing in front of his family and the couple got into a heated argument. &lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;When the argument escalated, the groom slapped the bride, who slapped him right back.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;The bride’s family quickly stepped in and called off the wedding because of the groom’s ill-treatment of the bride. &lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;The father of the bride, who is a renowned businessman, spoke to his elders and later arranged the marriage of his daughter to her cousin. &lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;The two tied the knot on the marked date, January 20th. &lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Social media users are thrilled for the bride. &lt;/p&gt;

            &lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
				
			&lt;/figure&gt;
&lt;p&gt;			&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;One person blamed the patriarchal structure of the society for the groom’s actions. &lt;/p&gt;
