You
know, there are things I read about these people that makes me want to
talk but ‘cos I have a lot of them as colleagues in the office I am
forced to hold my peace. Some culture’s is just so bizarre, wicked,
devilish…:-) An 18-year-old Indian girl Mangli Munda has married a stray
dog as part of a tribal ritual designed to ward off an evil spell.
Mangli Munda, from a remote village in the eastern Indian state of
Jharkhand, wed the canine in a lavish ceremony.
At
the wedding ceremony, people danced to traditional drumming, while
around 70 relatives and local villagers attended the wedding. The
baffled dog, Sheru, a stray found by the girl's father, was brought to
the wedding in a chauffeur driven car and welcomed by revellers.
The wedding was organised by village elders after a local guru told Mangli’s parents that the teenager possessed ill-luck and that marrying a man would bring destruction to the family and her community.
Mangli, who has not been to school, said she was not happy to wed a dog, but insisted that it will help change her fortunes:
'I am marrying a dog because the village elders believe that my evil spell will be passed on to the dog. After that is done, the man I will marry will have a long life.
My
villagers say that many girls like me have followed this ritual and
they have gotten rid of their evil spells and are living happy lives
now. I will also be free to marry a man of my dreams after after the
evil spell is over.'
I will marry a man one day. It is the dream of every girl to marry a prince charming. So I am also waiting for my prince.'
