An arranged marriage is one where parents or
other relatives are normally involved in the
choice of potential spouse, but both individuals
CAN SAY NO to the suitors they are presented

Honour-based violence, including forced marriage and female genital mutilation, is a form of domestic abuse perpetuated in the name of family honour. Forced marriage involves one or both parties being coerced into a marriage without their consent, while female genital mutilation poses a significant risk to young girls. The practice of forced marriage is not endorsed by any religion and is a harmful form of abuse. Countries like Pakistan, Bangladesh, and India have reported high rates of forced marriages. It is essential to raise awareness and prevent these harmful practices.
