Kodagu: The distressed flood-hit families living in a relief camp here, on Thursday had a reason to smile.
Varija, a young girl from Monnangeri married Rudresh from Pune at Ganapathi temple, thus bringing in celebration at the relief camp.
Varija and her family lived in the relief camp after losing their home to recent deluge in Kodagu. Though the marriage date was fixed, the floods had compelled the family to postpone the marriage. However, an organisation helped the family to complete marriage rituals on the set date itself.
The Mehendi ceremony of Varija was done at a government school on September 5 and her entire family witnessed the same with damp eyes.
