This is no Monsoon Wedding, but it will still be one of the most talked about ones of the season in Uttar Pradesh. The wedding venue is a tiny township on the UP-Nepal border, Rupaidiha in Bahraich district, and the bride is a coy 18-year-old. The “father” of the girl — and it is this that makes all the difference — is an entire police station. Anita, the bride, has been brought up by the Rupaidiha police station and it is the thana that is arranging the wedding for her. Anita was merely five years old when her parents were murdered in a property dispute. A few months later, the assailants killed her elder sister as well.
