A significant share of women in the country get married without even the most basic forms of communication with their to-be-spouses before their wedding day

Indian women may be shedding their clichéd demure image, but when it comes to matters of choosing life partners they still opt for the traditional, conventional ways. According to the India Human Development Survey (IHDS), 2011-12, a significant share of women in the country continue to get married without even the most basic forms of communication with their to-be-spouses before their wedding day.

Consider this: only half of the women in the age group of 15-32 years who were married as of 2011-12, had interacted with their spouses in person or through phone or email or had even seen a picture, reveals the survey.

The numbers were even worse in the case of women of the older generation. In some categories, only about one in six women have had some form of interaction with their to-be-spouses before wedding.

Expectedly, a higher share of urban women has interacted with their to-be husbands. In rural India, less than half of the married women had any form of communication with their partners.
