Question

What happened at Bholi's marriage ceremony?​

Answer 1

Answer:

Bishamber Nath an old grocer ready to marry Bholi. On the day of the Marriage Ceremony, Bishamber Nath saw the pox marks on Bholi's face. He demanded 5000 rupees to marry her. Bholi Father offers him 2000 rupees.

Answer 2

At Bholi’s marriage ceremony, when the groom saw that her face was covered with pock-marks, he declared that he would marry her only if her father paid him a dowry of five thousand rupees. Bishamber did not budge from his stand in spite of repeated pleadings by Ramlal. Finally, Ramlal placed the dowry amount at the groom’s feet. Consequently, when Bishamber was about to place the garland around Bholi’s neck, she struck out her hand and the garland was flung into the fire. She said that she was willing to marry that man only because of her father’s honour. However, on seeing that the man was mean, greedy and contemptible, she had decided not to go ahead with the marriage.
