Hyderabad: The Rachakonda Police She Team from the LB Nagar division averted a child marriage and rescued a minor girl here on Saturday.

Parents of the teenaged girl from Jaipuri Colony in LB Nagar area had fixed her wedding with a distant relative.

“We received information that elders of both sides had fixed the wedding. We went to their houses and counseled their families on the negative impacts of early marriages and others. They then called off the wedding,” police said.

Rachakonda Police Commissioner Mahesh M. Bhagwat, appreciating the good work of the She Teams, requested citizens not to encourage child marriages as it was a crime, adding that priests, wedding invitation printers, elders and supporters of the marriage and parents of the child would be held responsible.

On Friday, the Rachakonda Police She Team from Bhongir division had averted a child marriage and rescued a minor girl. Parents of the 14-year-old girl from Chandubatla village in Bhongir Rural area had fixed her wedding with a 21-year-old boy from the neighbouring village.

The Rachakonda Police requested citizens to report child marriages on Dial 100 facility or the Rachakonda Police WhatsApp number – 9490617111.
