In a unique wedding procession in Barmer, Rajasthan, the groom arrived at the ceremony on 51 tractors, one of which was driven by the groom himself. The groom’s father said that since his wedding procession departed on one tractor, he got 51 tractors for his son’s procession.
The groom, Prakash Choudhary, hails from Gudamalani village and married Mamata, a native of Roli village. The procession, which departed from the groom’s house, consisted of more than 200 Baratis on the 51 tractors, covering a distance of 51 kilometres to reach Roli village.
Choudhary shared that a tractor is considered the recognition of a farmer, and as their family’s prime occupation is farming, everyone is into agriculture. His father’s procession departed on one tractor, and everyone thought why not use 51 tractors for his.
The groom’s father, Jetharam, highlighted that a tractor is reckoned as a ‘son of the Earth’, and their family already had 20-30 tractors. He along with his farmer friends, made a note of total 51 of them. When the procession departed, 10-12 more tractors joined it.
When the procession arrived at the bride’s village, everyone was astonished. The Baratis stated that since they do agriculture with tractors, why not take a procession on them.
The unique wedding procession grabbed everyone’s attention in Rajasthan’s Barmer.
