Afterwards, both bride and groom were placed in isolation at the center, part of a network of quarantine facilities set up in almost every village.Weddings in India are often an elaborate and noisy affair, with hordes of relatives and other guests taking part in celebrations. But several states have imposed restrictions around numbers allowed at marriage gatherings.India has the world’s second highest COVID-19 caseload after the United States, with over 9.6 million confirmed cases.Infections have fallen since hitting a peak in September in spite of a busy festival season last month, which saw bustling markets and crowded streets full of shoppers.(Writing by Shilpa Jamkhandikar; editing by Philippa Fletcher)Wacky Weddings and ProposalsSee GallerySuggest a correctionMore:HealthBusinessasiaEntertainment and LifestyleOddly Enough”]
