In a rare wedding ceremony held in a Mosque, a Hindu couple tied the nuptial knot and exchanged vows here on Sunday. The marriage hosted by the Cheruvally Muslim Jamaat mosque near here, was held according to hindu rituals in front of a lighted traditional lamp with guests from both the communities participating. Since the bride hailed from a poor economic background, Anju’s mother had sought help from the mosque committee to conduct the wedding, which they readily agreed. The Mosque committee also gifted ten sovereigns of gold and Rs two lakh to the bride as a wedding gift. The marriage was held as per Hindu rituals.
