Girl goes berserk at lover’s wedding
Muhurtham advanced, blows exchanged in marriage hall
A 23-year-old girl made a futile attempt to prevent her estranged lover from tying the knot to another girl in Rajajinagar on Friday.
Commotion prevailed in KEB Community Hall as the girl T N Priyanka, who claimed to be pregnant, barged into the venue along with her family members to disrupt the marriage.
Blows were exchanged between the parties even as guests remained mute spectators. Priyanka’s sister, Teja sustained minor injuries in the fight.
Priyanka, a first year MBA student and resident of Nandini Layout, was in love with Anand, a PUC dropout for the last four years. His family was opposed to their marriage as they belonged to different castes. Meanwhile, Anand was engaged to another girl, Tirumala of Jayanagar.
Priyanka who got the wind of the news earlier lodged a complaint with the Nandini Layout Police on October 30 seeking action against Anand. However, the police refused saying the marriage cannot be prevented as per law. 
After learning that the muhurtam was set at 9.30 am, Priyanka, along with her family members, forced her way into the KEB Community Hall and tried to disrupt the wedding.
"Anand used to come to PES College where I was pursuing BBM. Soon we fell in love. I trusted him when he told me that his family won't oppose the marriage as I was pregnant (from him)," a furious Priyanka told reporters whom she had informed in advance.
However, she alleged that Anand had demanded Rs 10 lakh for marrying her. She also showed photographs taken during their travel trips.
Muhurtham advanced
Meanwhile, when contacted City Police Commissioner Shankar Bidari said that ‘sensing trouble, the marriage time was advanced by Anand’s family. As per law we could not stop the marriage.”
However, in view of Priyanka’s statement that she is three-month pregnant with Anand’s child, we are investigating into the case and will take suitable action as per law.” A case of rape and cheating has been registered against Anand, police said.
