A wedding punch-up was sparked when a bride opted to marry a guest instead after her husband-to-be had an epileptic fit during the ceremony. Jugal Kishore, 25, and 23-year-old bride Indira were about to perform the traditional 'varmala' ceremony during their Hindu wedding, when he suddenly fell ill. Kishore fell to the ground as he extended his arms to exchange garlands with his bride. But Indira, angry that her family had not been told of Kishore's epilepsy, decided to marry one of her wedding guests instead...Harpal Singh, her sister's brother-in-law. Singh and Indira exchanged garlands in the traditional way in front of the guests, as Kishore, was taken to a doctor for treatment. Weapons: Plates and spoons were among among weapons reportedly used by guests during the brawl (file picture) When he returned to the wedding venue, he found that his wife-to-be was now married to someone else. Kishore pleaded with Indira, to change her mind, but she stood firm - sparking a punch-up between guests, involving spoons, plates and dishes, the Times of India reports. Police in Rampur district of India, said they had detained several people who were there at the wedding. "Both families have amicably resolved the matter," an officer said. "The complaints have been withdrawn. Kishore and his family have now returned in peace to Moradabad."
