A 19-year-old girl in Rajasthan has refused to go and live with a man she was married to when she was a baby. For that, she has been fined Rs. 16 lakh by village elders. "When I was 16 years old I came to know that I was married. I don't even remember the marriage. I want it annulled," said Santa Devi Meghwal at a press conference in Jodhpur on Monday.
