The 45-year-old Meghwal had invited band party despite getting a warning of facing a boycott. The traditions of Mana village do not permit such a thing, they allow a dhol to welcome the groom. Upon receiving threats, Meghwal had informed the cops and the marriage took place under tight security. Ignoring warning of the upper caste members, kerosene in the well was poured to take revenge.
