A family in Uttar Pradesh’s Amroha called off the wedding of their son, alleging that the bride uses too much time on WhatsApp. According to a police complaint filed by the bride’s father, the groom’s father called up the family on Wednesday, the day of the wedding, and told them about their decision.

“We had no inkling about what was coming to us. My daughter was in the middle of preparationsfor her wedding and was very excited. We were waiting for the baraat and all the guests were present inside the house. Suddenly, the groom’s father called me up and said they were cancelling the wedding,” the bride’s father told TOI.

He alleged that the groom’s father had also demanded ₹70 lakh in dowry, a demand which they could not fulfill.

Amroha superintendent of police Vipin Tada said, “The bride’s father had approached the Naugawan Sadat police station with the complaint that the groom’s father had called off the wedding saying the girl uses too much WhatsApp. He also alleged that the groom’s family demanded ₹70 lakh in dowry.”
