A 75-year-old man died the morning after marrying a woman less than half his age in , Uttar Pradesh.
Sangruram, a childless farmer who lost his first wife a year ago, married 35-year-old Manbhavati on Monday despite family objections. The couple registered their marriage and performed traditional temple rituals.
Manbhavati stated they spent their wedding night talking, with Sangruram assuring her she would manage household affairs while he would "take care of the children." However, his health deteriorated suddenly the next morning, and doctors declared him dead at the hospital.
The sudden death has sparked village speculation, with some calling it natural and others suspecting foul play. Relatives have halted funeral rites pending their arrival from Delhi, while local questions emerge about potential police investigation or post-mortem examination.
