A couple has refused to accept their daughter who had eloped with her lover last May from Rangpur-Gujraul village in India.
The parents of the girl told the police that their daughter was unmarried and now that she was three-month pregnant they could not accept her and did not know what to tell their caste men.
It is apparently against the social tradition and the girl has been under police protection at the Patahi police station for the last two days.
The girl fell in love with a youth from her village and she eloped with him last May.
She was taken to Mumbai where she stayed for a short time and ultimately she was picked up by the GRP of Siwan railway station in August after her lover ditched her somewhere between Mumbai to Siwan.
She was, thereafter, handed over to the Mahila Suraksha Grih, Siwan by the GRP.
Later, the girl revealed to police that she is a native of Rangpur-Gujraul village and she was handed over to East Champaran police by GRP of Siwan.
A medical examination on her confirmed that she was three-month pregnant.
Patahi police approached the parents of the girl in her village but they are adamant they will not accept the girl.
The police is trying its best to persuade the parents of the girl and taking help of the villagers.
No social worker or organisation had come forward to help this girl and the police has its limitation according to existing laws.
