Jaipur, June 28
The Rajasthan Government has slapped a fine of Rs 6,26,600 on a groom's father for flouting Covid-19 norms by organising a lavish wedding in Bhilwara recently.
Of the 250 invitees, 15 contracted virus and the groom's grandfather died of the infection. As many as 58 others were quarantined, said Rajendra Bhatt, Collector, Bhilwara. The invitees flouted norms like wearing face masks, social distancing, cleanliness and did not even use sanitisers.
An FIR was lodged under the Rajasthan Epidemic Disease Act, 1957, and National Disaster Management Act against the groom's father, Gheesulal Rathi, on Saturday, Bhatt said. The man had sought permission for 50 guests to solemnise his son's wedding at Bhadada Mohalla in Bhilwara on June 13, but 250 guests attended the event. — OC
