According to reports, when Suryadev fell in love with Lal Devi and Jhalkari Devi, the trio decided to live together.
The village elders were initially reluctant but eventually agreed and helped them get married.
It is not the first time such an incident has taken place. In 2021, another man in Telangana's Adilabad district married two women in a single mandap. The ceremony in Utnoor Mandal took place with the consent of all three families, reports said.
In 2022, a man married both his girlfriends in Jharkhand's Lohardaga.
