Rishabh Rajput and Sonali Chouksey, a couple from Madhya Pradesh, married last month after 11 years together. Their wedding photos and videos went viral, but trolls targeted the groom’s dark skin and accused the bride of marrying for money. The couple, both working in private jobs, spoke out against the criticism. “People’s negative opinions mean nothing to me,” said Mr Rajput. Ms Chouksey added that judging someone by skin colour is wrong. They stressed their happiness and strong relationship. The couple hopes their story will challenge colourism in India and remind people not to judge by appearances. (PC: BBC)
