In Nashik, a woman named Sangita was taken away by her family after her marriage to Santosh, who was also from Dindori. The couple had married by mutual consent through Vedic rituals on October 31, but Sangita's family opposed the union due to social hierarchy concerns. Police allegedly assaulted both the couple and Sangita's relatives, refusing to record Sangita's statement about her willingness to live with her husband.
Following the intervention of the Maharashtra Andhashraddha Nirmoolan Samiti (MANS), the couple was reunited late Wednesday night. MANS activists spoke with Santosh, who then took Sangita to Additional Commissioner of Police Vimala M, who directed the police to record her statement and bring her to the police station. Sangita expressed her desire to live with her husband, and she was reunited with him in the presence of MANS representatives, who promised to pursue safe-home accommodation, a formal inquiry, and appropriate action against the responsible parties.
