When the affair came to light, the family convened several village panchayats and attempted to counsel the couple, urging them to respect familial ties. However, both reportedly remained adamant about living together.
On Valentine’s Day, the matter reached Doghat police station. In a dramatic turn of events, the woman’s husband allegedly decided to formally separate and handed her over to his nephew. Outside the police station, in the presence of family members and villagers, the two exchanged garlands, symbolically solemnising their union. They were later sent away from the village.
