In the village of Hazratpur, close to the Badosarai police station in Barabanki, Uttar Pradesh, on Friday, there was a lot of disorder during the brides’ procession for two Muslim family girls. The two barats got into an altercation and started throwing bricks, stones, sticks, and anything else they could find at one another. There was a stampede during the commotion, and it appears that more than a dozen people were hurt.
An argument broke out between the two wedding parties over dancing to the DJ at the Nikah ceremony for the daughters of Jalil Hanif and Garib. Both girls’ weddings were set for the same day and location. Accordingly, the two groom’s parties, one from Tikaitnagar and the other from Safdarganj, each with a DJ arrived in the afternoon. Both sides were singing and dancing on their way until they met each other on a village road.
They first got into a fight, which quickly turned into kids throwing rocks at each other and hitting each other with sticks. After their rods and stakes broke, the people gathered nearby shrubs and twigs and threw them at one another.
Injuries sustained in the incident included significant ones for Abdul Salam, Siraj Ahmed, Ramzan, Rehan, Aleem, and Azim.
