Question

(a) Why did Bholi agree to the unsuitable match at first?​

Answer 1

Answer:

At first, Bholi had agreed to marry an old man because of her father's honour, thereby placing her family's interest over her own. However, she later refused to marry him because she saw how mean, greedy and contemptible he was. This is why she rejected the marriage and silenced everybody else who called her shameless.
