Youth Radio: A Wedding in India

Youth Radio commentator Nishat Kurwa visits her family's ancestral home in India's Gujarat State to attend her cousin's wedding.

But the rich wedding festivities and conversations with her cousin about the benefits of arranged marriage have made her more open to the idea.
