The incident occurred in Etawah district's Sanadpur where Surabhi was tying the knot with local resident Manoj Kumar. Surabhi died due to a cardiac arrest.
In a disturbing incident, the sister of a bride in Uttar Pradesh (Northern India) was made to marry the groom after the bride collapsed and died in the middle of the wedding ceremony. The incident occurred in Etawah district’s Sanadpur where Surabhi was tying the knot with local resident Manoj Kumar.
After exchanging garlands as part of Hindu wedding rituals, however, Surabhi collapsed on the stage of the ‘Jaymala’. A doctor was called to treat her who upon inspection declared her dead. Surabhi seems to have died of a massive cardiac arrest that occurred right in the middle of the wedding. The families of both the bride and groom, however, decided to continue with the ‘festivities’ by replacing the bride with her sister.
“We did not know what to do in the situation. Both the families sat together and someone suggested that my younger sister Nisha should be married to the groom. The families discussed the matter and both agreed," Surabhi’s brother Saurabh told news agency IANS
Surabhi’s body was kept in another room and the marriage of Manjesh was solemnized with Nisha. After the wedding, when the ‘baraat’ left, Surabhi’s last rites were held," he said.
Surabhi’s uncle Ajab Singh, said, “It was a tough call for our family. One daughter lay dead in one room and the wedding of another daughter was being solemnized in the other room. We have never witnessed such mixed emotions. The grief over her death and the happiness of the wedding has yet to sink in," he said.
This is not the first time that wedding festivities turned into mourning in India this year. In a similar incident that took place in Odisha in March this year, a young bride died after suffering a cardiac arrest, allegedly due to “excessive" crying during the ‘vidai’ ceremony after the wedding.

I thought this might be the U.P. of Michigan. Although it has probably happened there as well.
It's basically the same thing.
“If you can’t make it baby, I’m sure your sister will...’
“’Cause if my baby don’t love me no more,
I know her sister will!”

Kind of a blues cliche; used in multiple songs.
His nickname is Hunter.
I can’t believe this is true. Maybe this is a Hindu hit piece.
Maybe it is, these people in those parts are primitive villagers.
It’s not exactly a peaceful region. A lot of terrorism going on in Muslim faction areas.
Not everything printed is true.
India is presently under bio warfare attack. So close to China. Mysterious they have a super strain of covid. And supposedly people are dying in the thousands. Are they being punished because they favored President Trump’s policies?
I’m not Hindu but for the most part, Hindus are peaceful people.
I’d choose them for neighbors any day over the assassins of Mahatma Gandhi. Those who kill for their so called religion. It’s not a religion if the only way to convert your enemy is to kill their families.
And why mysteriously has India been attacked with super strains of covid?
How convenient?
The communist-Islamist killers will fail. God will return soon. He will Descend from Heaven and obliterate the killers of humanity.
Matthew 3:22 “His winnowing fork is in his hand, and he will clear his threshing floor, gathering his wheat into the barn and burning up the chaff with unquenchable fire.”
Make preparation. Only God can save us now from the demons of this world. Their days are numbered.

I got a girl, she lives on the hill. She won't do it but her sister will.
This is the original role of the maid of honor.
“Ah woke up dis mawnin’...”
;D
Never let a wedding go to waste.
This is so weird. Neither the groom nor the sister were given time to grieve.
Uttar Pradesh: the Florida of India
Interesting.
Guess they can’t have matrons of honor then.
FWIW, Haydn, Mozart, and Dvorak all married the sister of the woman they intended to marry, with varying results.
Was she the understudy?
So you are saying this groom should try his hand at classical music?
Sikhs .....usually
Freepers love them....consider them warriors who never commit terrorism....nonsense
Freepers are screwy....(some)
Gandhi was killed by Hindu zealots
Indira Gandhi by Sikhs
Rajiv Gandhi by Tamil Hindus
India can be very very as in extremely violent with civil war deaths in the millions
India's religions have had good press in the West for a long time.
