Charity Body Arranges Mass Wedding For 70 Couples In Kabul

KABUL, Jun 14 (NNN-ANA) – A local charity organisation, has arranged a mass wedding party, for 70 couples, in Afghanistan’s capital city of Kabul, the state-run Bakhtar news agency reported, today.

“The Silab Foundation held a mass wedding for 70 couples in Kabul yesterday. The couples were unable to arrange wedding parties individually, due to economic problems,” Bakhtar said, in its report.

In Afghanistan, holding a marriage ceremony is expensive. In a normal wedding party, the groom’s family has to invite hundreds of guests from both groom and bride families, which normally costs at least 10,000 to 20,000 U.S. dollars.

The Taliban-run administration called on people to avoid wasting money on marriages.– NNN-ANA
