The wedding invitation cards of Devkaran Dehari lie undistributed at his home in Chhattisgarh, his family and friends in numbing grief that the popular youth would never come back home. Dehari, or Karan as he was fondly known, was among the five District Reserve Guard jawans who died in a Maoist blast in Maroda on Barsoor-Palli road in Narayanpur, some 222 kilometres from here, on Tuesday. Dehari, who was driving the bus that got blown up, was supposed to get married on April 21. "He had collected the cards from a printing shop in Narayanpur on March 21, and had come to my home for dinner. He had told me he would start distributing the wedding invites after returning from the operation," said Dehari's close friend and Narayanpur District Ayurved Officer Dr Satyendra Nag.
However, Salman who got married on Friday night will miss his own wedding reception, scheduled for November 26 in Meerut, due to the district ban imposed just a day before the 'nikah' (wedding).
