Is it possible an Indian man marries a dog?
Indian man marries dog in attempt to ward off curse after mistreating canines:
Tuesday November 13, 04:14 PM
A man in southern India married a female dog in a traditional Hindu ceremony as an attempt to atone for stoning two other dogs to death _ an act he believes cursed him _ a newspaper reported Tuesday.
P. Selvakumar married the sari-draped former stray named Selvi, chosen by family members and then bathed and clothed for the ceremony Saturday at a Hindu temple in the southern state of Tamil Nadu, the Hindustan Times newspaper said.
Selvakumar, 33, told the paper he had been suffering since he stoned two dogs to death and hung their bodies from a tree 15 years ago.
"After that my legs and hands got paralyzed and I lost hearing in one ear," he said in the report.
The paper said an astrologer had told Selvakumar the wedding was the only way he could cure the maladies. It did not say whether his situation had improved.
Deeply superstitious people in rural India sometimes organize weddings to dogs and other animals, believing it can ward off certain curses.
The paper showed a picture of Selvakumar sitting next to the dog, which was wearing an orange sari and a flower garland.
The paper said the groom and his family then had a feast, while the dog got a bun.

Can be such kind of rituals be banned in India. Or they encourage such rituals.

Well, there was this incident in India last year where a man married a hill. Or was it a woman that married the hill? I’ll try to find the story.
Edit: I can’t find the story, but I swear I saw one last year and the absurdity of it stuck my mind. However, I found something else: An Indian woman marries a cobra.
Basically, if all this is taking place then there’s no chance in hell what you mention could be banned.

Well, reading what he did to the dogs, he obviously wasn’t mentally stable for a long time before that.

Next week he will be divorcing dogs. And shacking up with a cat. LOL
Some same sexer will use this as the arguing point tomorrow.
Weird story, I don’t trust it, it seems too weird.

I think it’s unfair that all the dog got at the wedding was a bun. She should should have at least got aboner.
