Indian woman Rajo Verma married to five brothers,
A YOUNG mum told last night how she has five husbands — who are all BROTHERS. Rajo Verma, 21, lives in a one-room shack with all five, sleeping with a different one each night on a rota. The housewife has no idea which one is the father of her toddler son. She said: “Initially it felt a bit awkward. But I don’t favour one over the other.”
Husband Guddu, 21 — the first to make her his bride — insisted: “We all have sex with her but I’m not jealous. We’re one big happy family.” The couple got hitched in an arranged Hindu marriage four years ago and he remains her only official spouse.
The 21-year-old Verma is also not sure which one fathered her now 18-month-old son. Verma and first husband Guddu were united in an arranged Hindu marriage four years ago, but she has since married Baiju, Sant Ram, Gopal and Dinesh. Baiju is the oldest at 32, while Dinesh is the youngest at 19. The seven of them live in one room in Dehradun. Verma married the four brothers in support of an ancient tradition called polyandry. “My mother was also married to three brothers so when I got wed I knew I had to accept all of them as my husbands,” she said. “I sleep with them in turn. We don’t have beds, just lots of blankets on the floor.”
