Bihar: A Bihar Public Service Commission (BPSC) teacher in Bihar's Begusarai district was forced into a 'Pakaduah Vivah'. According to reports, the school teacher, who was posted in Katihar, was in a relationship with a girl for four years but later refused to marry her. This refusal led to severe consequences. The family members of the girl forcibly took the man and made him marry her at a temple in Bihar. After the marriage, when the couple arrived at the groom's house, the boy's family assaulted the girl. The girl's family has filed a complaint with the police in this regard.
Girl claims to have been in relationship for 4 years
The teacher, a resident of Rajoura Sikandarpur in the Mufassil police station area, and the girl, from Pipariya police station area in Lakhisarai, had been in a relationship for four years. The girl stated that she had been living with her sister in Rajoura and studying there. Four years ago, she fell in love with a boy from the same village. The boy was preparing for the BPSC exam. After passing the BPSC TRE 2 exam and becoming a teacher, he was posted in Katihar.

As per the details, the boy started inviting the girl to Katihar and they lived there and also met each other frequently. After a few days, the girl returned to her sister's home. About 10 days ago, the boy came to the village and took the girl with him to Katihar. A couple of days back some people saw them together in Katihar. The girl had already informed her family about the relationship, and her family tried to arrange a marriage immediately, but the boy refused.
