Question
Dear Abhijit,

I'm really curious about what the hindu religion has to do with the way indians form relationships??...For example, there is a religion, i am not sure which one, but men are allowed to have multiple wives. Does the Hindu religion allow such thing?

Thank you very much,

Cindy

Answer
Dear Cindy,

I think you are talking about muslim religion where man is allowed to marry 4 wifes. in my religion, a man is not allowed more than one. its prohibited by law. in the past, polygamy was widely practised but now, its forbidden and in the present day, u will hardly see any hindu man having more than one wife.

i hope it will help you in ur doubts. if you have any more questions plz do ask me.

with best regards

Abhijit
