According to reports, the wedding procession had arrived
from Ballia district in Uttar Pradesh. The rituals of the wedding ceremony was
ongoing: the bride, 23-year-old Aarti Kumari, daughter of Nandiji Chaudhary,

Dinbandhu, 22. The bride reportedly named him after the shooting.
A family member said she initially mistook the shooting as
firecrackers.
"We thought it was part of the celebration. I had gone
home. Suddenly, we saw sparks near the stage. We thought people were bursting
firecrackers. But when we reached there, Aarti had been shot and the groom was
carrying her to take her to the hospital," the relative said.
Another family member said they heard a gunshot before
seeing Aarti collapse.
"He shot her and ran away. Her husband picked her up
and rushed her to the hospital," he added.
Aarti was first taken to a local hospital and later referred
to Varanasi for further treatment.
Buxar Superintendent of Police Shubham Arya is personally
supervising the investigation.
