We have heard about fathers sending off their daughters with fanfare after their wedding, but in Uttar Pradesh's Kanpur, a father brought his daughter home with a band after her divorce.
Following his daughter's divorce, "We brought her back just like we had sent her off after her wedding. We want her to begin afresh with her chin up", said Anil Kumar, the daughter's father who works for BSNL.

Urvi aged 36, daughter of Anil Kumar was married to a computer engineer in 2016. Urvi, herself is an engineer at the Palam Airport in New Delhi. The couple also had a daughter.
Later after the marriage, Urvi's in-laws were harassing her for dowry following which she moved to court for a divorce. The court granted them a divorce on February 28.
"I tried hard to save the relationship after enduring eight years of torture, beatings, and taunts, but in the end, it broke down," she said. "While bringing her back home, I made arrangements for 'band baaja' so that a positive message would be sent to the society and people would try and understand their daughters rather than ignore them after marriage," Anil said.
Urvi's mother Kusumlata said, "I look forward to being with my daughter and granddaughter. And it is a great feeling." "Initially, we thought Urvi was getting married a second time. But when we understood her father's intent, it was an overwhelming feeling," said Indrabhan Singh, a neighbour. Meanwhile, Urvi appreciated her parents' gesture and said that she would take a break before beginning afresh.
