The girl’s lover’s marriage was fixed somewhere else, the girl jumped into the river, two young men saved her life

Naiduniya representative, Mandsaur. On Saturday evening, a girl from village Bhooki came running on the road going from the district court premises towards the Shivna river and jumped into the river. Two young men watching from nearby also immediately jumped into the river and pulled the girl out.

For a long time the girl did not say anything. Later when people reached there and asked her, she said that the person she wanted to marry had refused her family and had arranged her marriage somewhere else. Angered by this, she had come to commit suicide by jumping into the Shivna. Later people also informed the police.

According to the information received, on Saturday evening around 4 o’clock, a girl came running from the Kastkar restaurant and jumped straight into the Shivna river. Due to the rain, the water level in the river is also quite high. Rehan Qureshi and Ashfaq, both youths who were watching from a house nearby, also came running and jumped into the river and took the girl out. The girl’s condition was fine as she was taken out quickly.

At first the girl did not say anything. The young men who rescued her and other people present there told that the girl’s family had refused to marry the boy she wanted to marry and the boy’s marriage had been fixed elsewhere. Angered by this, the girl jumped into the Shivna river.

We were watching and the girl jumped into the river

We were watching from above when we saw this girl running and jumping into the river. Then my friend Ashfaq and I ran and pulled her out. When the girl was pulled out, she was saying, let me die. – Rehan Qureshi, the person who pulled the girl out

Some time ago, when I came out from here with my wife, I saw a young woman sitting near the water. When we stopped her, she went away. Then after a while, I saw her running towards the valley from the direction of the Kashtakar restaurant and jumping into the river. Both the young men saw her and took her out. She is saying that she is from village Bhookhi. And her lover is getting married at another place, so she had come to commit suicide. -Afsar Patel, resident.
