Kanpur: Girl calls off marriage as would-be-groom gets maths wrong

Kanpur: A 23-year-old man's failure to answer a simple maths query has cost his marriage at Rasoolabad in Kanupr, Uttar Pradesh.

A 21-year-old bride walked out of her wedding after the groom failed to answer a maths question. The girl claims that the groom's family showed them a different boy who was educated when the marriage proposal was agreed upon and that they were cheated.

The girl asked the boy a simple maths question when she realised that the groom was swapped with someone else. The boy's family however did not agree to the decision.

The revelation led to a scuffle between the two sides. The marriage was called off only after the police intervention.
