Engagement breakup :- girl family fire a case

From the points of facts put in by you, it appears to me that you are wholly at fault, for-

- a life decision can't be taken based on a photograph. Sharing photograph is preliminary process to avoid embarassment of  rejection on face, especially for the girl. An engagement can't be fixed based photograph

- Even if so a man can't agree to marry a girl just because there were so many relatives around ! A man after all

should be man enough to face the facts

- Imagine the girl's ordeal - Even if they had concocted the photograph, that does not justify your act of indecisive, rather unstable action 

- It would be better to amend ways, to truly understand the stature and nature of the girl and take a very consciou decision of your life

Don't involve anybody other than your own self righteious ness and the girls'

I think, You must personally meet the girl and tell your problem an tell her that we might not have a happy married life because attraction is the first step.

Secondly, involve some prestigious relatives and try to convince them by your problem.

Thirdly, you may pretend yourself of having some incurable disease like AIDS etc, if possible try to get a certificate for that.

If there is no attraction , there will not be love and without love how the life married life will continue.

But otherside of the coin is that meet that girl and try to find something ggod in girl.You will find something becasue just the face cannot be the ground for rejecting the marriage.Try and respond, there are other ways to see the things.

Hello Rahul Kumar,

       As opined by other learned brother advocates, I will rather look into the legal perspective.

It’s not a fault on your part to accept the girl for marriage on seeing her photograph and there is also no fault on your side if you had proceeded with engagement even though you got shocked to see her original features (that which was not photographed and sent to you).

Those were the prevailing circumstances (may be with family sentiments or with social image of your family) that made you to accept her in engagement.

Your decision of turning back is fair enough to protect yourself.

Now the point of consideration is that of their actions, if any:

·         If they are trying to defame your family name in public or with relatives then you can go for issuing a Legal Notice to them by registered post calling upon them not to continue with their illegal acts else you will take appropriate actions to stop them doing so.
