Maharashtra Group Launches Inter-Caste Matchmaking Center
A group called Maharashtra Andhashraddha Nirmoolan Samiti (MANS) started a place to help people find partners from different castes and religions.
This center is for anyone who wants to marry someone outside of their own group.
They help people find matches and make sure everyone agrees with the decision.
MANS also has a safe place, called a 'Safe House,' where couples can stay if they need protection.
The goal is to make society more equal by helping people marry whoever they love, no matter their background.
