Exactly. Just for clarity, arranged doesn't mean forced. The woman in almost all cases gives a consent. And if she later regrets, this is the path she chooses instead of just leaving, and her parents usually support her. There are various reasons for choosing this path:
1. Free money.
2. Free sympathy from the society.
3. Feeling of revenge.
- kumarvvr 6y agoIn addition to the three above reasons, many choose this path to "clear their name", as in "I am a victim", who deserves a second chance at marriage. Remember that marriages for divorced women are extremely difficult in India. If the woman was separated from the husband, "as a victim", they have a better chance, especially if she is young. However, due to severe misuse of the law, now the situation is such that any woman even as much linked to a court case regarding marriage issues, is effectively shunned from marriage. And this affects genuine victims a lot.
