Maharashtra police will be asked to prepare SOP to tackle cases of women duped into marriage outside religion using fake identity: Fadnavis

Deputy Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis said the govt will ask Maharashtra police to create a standard operating procedure (SOP) to handle cases where women are duped into marrying outside their religion under false pretences. This comes as part of a discussion on the alleged luring of Hindu girls by anti-social elements in Aurangabad district. Fadnavis stressed that police stations will be sensitised on the issue and will face action if appropriate steps are not taken.
