Report ON Arrange Marriage Introduction: In an arranged marriage, the bride and groom are selected by a third party rather than by each other. It is especially common in royal families around the world. Today, arranged marriage is largely practiced in South Asia (India, Nepal, Pakistan, Sri Lanka)Africa, the Middle East, and Southeast Asia and East Asia to some extent. As we Known, Arranged marriages are usually seen in Indian, Southeast Asian and African cultures, especially among royalty, and are usually set up by the parents or an older family member. The match could be selected by parents, a matchmaking agent, matrimonial site, or a trusted third party. In many communities, priests or religious leaders as well as relatives or family friends play a major role in matchmaking. Process Of arrange marriage: In an "introduction only" arranged marriage, the parents may only introduce their son or daughter to a potential spouse. From that point on, it is up to the children to manage the relationship and make a final choice. There is no set time period. This is common in the rural parts of South America and especially in India and Pakistan. The same also occurs in Japan. This type of arranged marriage is very common in Iran under the name of khastegari. “An arranged marrige is a marrige that is arranged by someone other than those who are marrying”. History In india: 1. History of Arranged Marriage in India “First comes marriage, then comes love.” Esthela Caito History 141 Arguello. 2. - The concept of arranged marriage in India has gone through many changes over time. Arranged marriages have been important in Indian culture since the fourth century.

Classical orthodox Hinduism came about in ca. 500 BC and this was a time when there was great emphasis on patriarchy and caste rules. Arranged marriages took place so that women would be placed under theauthority of a male. When a girl is a child, the father has authority over her, when the woman is married, the husband has authority over her, and when she is of old age, her sons have authority over her. 4. - In the modern period, the number of arranged marriages has lessened a little as social reforms have taken place & love marriages have become more popular. These days, Indian women can do well economically after independence of their parents. They are also well educated. A love marriage is one in which two people will decide to get married because they both have love and affection for one another and feel a sense of commitment and attraction. The partner does not have to be Indian in a love marriage.
