Late-arriving grooms put on notice as Kashmir's wedding chefs set 10 pm deadline for wazwan

What's behind this

In Srinagar, traditional wedding chefs known as waza have decided to stop serving the ceremonial wazwan after 10 pm. At a conference held in a marriage hall in the Rajouri Kadal area, the chefs said they were fed up with “inhuman conditions” and long hours caused by delays, especially when grooms arrive late. The unanimous decision was presented as a response to poor treatment and extended waiting times for the groom’s arrival.
