What is mass marriage scheme?
The mass marriage scheme is a social welfare scheme of the Government of Uttar Pradesh, which is aimed at helping the daughters of poor and economically weaker families in marriage.

The special feature of this scheme is that many couples get married simultaneously, which reduces the expenditure on the event and keeps transparency.
