Bride turns down 'dark' groom

In an interesting incident an Indian man in eastern Bihar state went on a hunger strike outside his would be bride's house for two days as she had earlier refused to marry the man for his dark complexion.

Saral Prasad, the 23-year-old groom, said he would not budge from the girl's village home after she refused to marry him earlier this week in an arranged marriage because he was too dark.

Rajani, 19, changed her mind after two days and the couple got married, Arun Kumar Mishra, a village council official said.

"We were all taken by surprise but Rajani was finally moved by the gesture of the young man and married him," Mishra said.
