In India, many slum women face exploitation and trafficking due to delayed marriages, as marriage is a safeguard against social evils. Lack of resources often leads to postponement of marriages. Mass weddings offer a solution, easing financial burdens and benefiting around 1000 disadvantaged women.

This initiative aims to transform lives, reduce dowry-related violence, and empower underprivileged women, fostering positive societal change .High rates of exploitation and trafficking threaten slum women in India due to delayed marriages. Approximately 27% of girls marry before 18, leading to early pregnancies. Dowry-related violence resulted in 7,099 reported deaths in 2019.

Financial burdens from dowry demands and wedding expenses exacerbate the issue. Gender disparities persist in education, with fewer disadvantaged girls completing schooling. Despite government initiatives for mass marriages, many women still lag behind. This initiative aims to organize mass marriages for destitute women awaiting support for their weddings.

It will enable them to start their new lives equipped with social security, protecting them from social evils and the risks of exploitation and trafficking. The long-term impact of this initiative will be multifaceted. Firstly, it will empower disadvantaged women by providing them with the necessary support to enter into marriage securely, thereby reducing their vulnerability to exploitation and trafficking in the future. Secondly, it will contribute to breaking the cycle of poverty by alleviating the financial burden associated with marriage expenses, allowing these women to invest in their education, livelihoods, or other productive endeavors.
