Young Woman Runs Away with Lover After Leaving Snake Skin on Bed, Announces Marriage

Auraiya, Uttar Pradesh: A dramatic turn of events unfolded in a village under Fafunda police jurisdiction when a young woman, unhappy with her family-arranged marriage, ran away with her lover. Before leaving, she placed a snake skin, bangles, and sindoor (vermilion) on her bed—a move that sparked intense speculation throughout the village.

Viral Video Confirms Marriage
Three days after the incident, the woman posted a video on social media confirming that she had married her lover, Satnam. In the video, she warned her family, saying that if anything were to happen to her husband, they would be held responsible. The video shows the woman dressed in a saree, wearing a bindi on her forehead and a mangalsutra (marital necklace) around her neck, firmly asserting that she had married the man of her choice.

Background of the Incident
The woman had been in a relationship with a man from her own village but her family had arranged her marriage with someone else. Dissatisfied with the arrangement, she staged an elaborate, cinematic-style drama by placing symbolic items on her bed before leaving home, which immediately became the talk of the village.

Husband Shares Marriage Photos
In the viral video, her husband stood beside her, showing viewers photographs from their wedding and confirming that they had also completed a court marriage. The social media confirmation has reassured the local police, who stated that the woman has legally married her lover, resolving concerns over her disappearance.
