Auqaf Committee in Baramulla announces modest marriage system
Srinagar, Jul 24: The Auqaf committee of Bangdara in north Kashmir’s Baramulla district has announced a modest marriage system which it said would end the financial burden on families, promote social equality, and fix the late marriage problem in the region.

The Auqaf said that the people should free themselves from the extravagant traditional customs of marriage, which with time is getting more and more thriftless, burdening a majority of working class people.
Quoting the chairman of Auqaf Committee Bangdara, Abdul Majeed Khan, news agency KNO reported that a joint meeting was held on Tuesday where the escalation of improvident weddings was discussed. This trend, Khan said, disregarded religious and cultural values of the community.
