Visited our native village. My parents were discussing how one of the Bahu’s of someone from our extended family died.
I asked, “How?”. They were like, “Peet-peet ke maardi gharwalo ne”( She was beaten to death by her husband and inlaws). I asked,”What about a police case?” They were like,”She was from Bihar, who will file a case for her?”.
(In our area, some men who are in their 30s,40s get married to girls from Bihar and they have to pay the girl’s family for that).
This just makes me so sad. Sadder that it’s not the first such incident that I have heard from our village.
