According to reports, a tea-seller in Rajasthan was served IT notice for distributing a dowry of 1 Crore for four of his daughters after a video in regard to that matter went viral on social media and YouTube. Leela Ram Gujjar, a resident of Bhiwandi in Alwar district of Rajasthan, had been recorded while members of his family and villagers were distributing the money in public.
The IT officials, who came to know about the existence of the video, served a legal notice to the tea-seller who’s currently on the run. In the notice, Gujjar was asked to appear in front of Jaipur IT officials to answer it but the tea-seller, who was scared to death, is on the run-away.
Also, he’s been charged for getting them (daughters) married under the age of 18. Soon after the incident came to light, authorities launched an official investigation into the issue and the district sub-divisional magistrate stated, The two daughters, whose names were printed on wedding card, are adults (above 18) and we’re yet to know about two others.’
The incident has caught everyone’s attention and it’s learned that Gujjar could face a jail sentence of more than five years for prompting under-age marriages and giving dowry. Now that the tea-seller has absconded, police officials are trying to trace his location and he would be sent to remand in judicial custody.
