Indian society has moved a long way the marriage is arranged in the story. Discuss.

Answer 1

in previous years decision of marriage of their children was taken with decision of parents for both to be bride and groom as it was thought that decision of elders will be best for their children. But as our society has grown children want to know their life partner more to find out weather both of them are compatible with each other as they are the one who would be spending life with each other so the concept of arrange marriage is not that much appreciated today as it was liked in past years.

Answer 2

Answer:

In the story 'Ranga's Marriage', the entire process of choosing a bride for Ranga is based upon the system, which was followed long back in our country. Now the scenario has changed completely. Rarely, marriages happen at a young age. People have become conscious about the fact that if the marriage has to last, a certain sense of maturity is required and this maturity can be obtained through education only. When the boys and the girls decide to get married, they always make a conscious decision. Now-a-days in India, marriages take place after the girl and boy consent to do so. Sometimes, the parents and the society do not approve but the Indian law supports this decision. In the story, 'Ranga's Marriage', the initiative for Ranga and Ratna's wedding was taken by the narrator. However, these days, we see a lot of changes taking place as far as the marriage scenario is concerned in India.
