KABUL: A local charity organization has arranged a mass wedding party for 70 couples in Afghanistan’s capital city Kabul, the state-run Bakhtar news agency reported Tuesday.
“The Silab Foundation held a mass wedding for 70 couples in Kabul yesterday. The couples were unable to arrange wedding parties individually due to economic problems,” Bakhtar said in its report.
In Afghanistan, holding a marriage ceremony is expensive. In a normal wedding party, the groom’s family has to invite hundreds of guests from both groom and bride families which normally costs at least 10,000 to 20,000 U.S. dollars.
The Taliban-run administration has called on people to avoid wasting money on marriages.
