The kin of the bride said she cannot be forced to tie the knot with a man who didn't respect her. The family called off the wedding and decided to go back home. They also filed a dowry complaint against the groom's family, who then agreed to shell out Rs 6.5 lakh after reaching a settlement. 

“The wedding has been called off. The woman’s family had given a dowry complaint. No FIR was registered since it is an issue between two families. They reached a settlement,” the report said.

On Sunday, the groom's family sought to make amends and tried to convince the bride for re-organising a ceremony to complete the nuptials. However, the bride refused to tie the knot, citing the "misbehaviour" that happened on the wedding day.
