CIBIL Score Leads to Marriage Cancellation in Maharashtra
In a surprising turn of events, a marriage was called off in Maharashtra after the groom’s CIBIL score was found to be low. The incident has sparked widespread discussion on social media.
Traditionally, families in India evaluated prospective grooms based on their lineage, habits, and character. Over time, the focus shifted to factors such as education, financial status, and salary. Now, in a reflection of changing priorities, a groom’s creditworthiness has come under scrutiny in the marriage selection process.
According to local media reports, a young woman from Murtizapur, Maharashtra, was engaged to a man from the same town. The wedding date was set after both families discussed the necessary arrangements. However, a few days before the wedding, the bride’s maternal uncle decided to check the groom’s CIBIL score, which indicates an individual’s credit history and financial discipline.
The results revealed that the groom had taken multiple loans from different banks and had a poor CIBIL score. Concerned about his financial stability and ability to provide for their daughter, the bride’s family decided to call off the wedding.
Following the cancellation, the incident gained significant traction online, with many netizens praising the bride’s family for prioritizing financial security.
