Marriage will be well remembered by the spoiled bride grooms. But , what, if same drama enacted in Badin on the wedding ceremony of any mirza, or shah or bijarai. Will the police act swiftly with same spirit. The answer will be a big No. No. No. If the police adventure to repeat the karachi show, the entire police force of Badin will be behind the bars under section xxxxx read with yyyyy and will be a non-bailable offence
