Flagging the issue of skewed male-female ratio, bachelors took out a march seeking brides for themselves in Maharashtra's Solapur district.
The 'bridegroom morcha' was organised on Wednesday by an outfit, which later submitted a memorandum to the district collector's office seeking strict implementation of the Pre-Conception and Pre-Natal Diagnostic Techniques (PCPNDT) Act to improve the male-female ratio in Maharashtra.
The memorandum also asked the state government to arrange brides for the bachelors, who participated in the march.
