@ShadowWizard no, actually its quite opposite, I live in water rich place. "Punjab" is made from two words "Punj"+"aab" means a land of five rivers. But now partitioned so much, only three of them flow from it. But, still too much water. Its one of main wheat supplying state of India.
Even with no rain, we can supply water to all of our crops, with full supply of underground water
@ShadowWizard plan
In old times, Punjab was once rewarded name of "Golden Sparrow", people were so rich.
@ShadowWizard It is just one state of India. That's why we call it a land of diversity
@ShadowWizard boy (for)
@ShadowWizard if you like history, it is very interesting also. Too much about wars, and formation of a new religion. Many races coming to India through same place. Punjab was entry door of India for centuries.
@DroidDev well, some cultures and/or religions are very different, we can't judge. I want to believe those are only "on the paper" marriage without them, ehm, doing anything. :D
@DroidDev gravestone
oops, min age is 18 for both girls and boys here in Israel.
In case a girl is pregnant before she's 18, a judge can allow a marriage as well.
@ShadowWizard that was to make their ancestor happy, I wonder.... Ok lets leave it
@ShadowWizard that's not a case here, I guess. I don't know if that situation occurs what will happen. Normally, I have heard, the hospital staff calls police. But culturally, people don't like a child here, before marriage. That's kind of taboo
@ShadowWizard No, I think my imagination went too far (and off the limits). I was just wondering, what they might be needed to do after marriage to make their ancestors happy.
@ShadowWizard sometimes, lovers also get killed, because it is not culturally allowed, in some remote areas, as a punishment and to set example and on the other hand, at some places, people also live in "live-in" relationship(that's allowed by law)
