On their part, the grooms and brides expressed their gratitude for the help and support provided to them by the organisers of this mass marriage event.

"It is a very good initiative for those parents who cannot marry off their daughters for want of finances. The organisers are providing us with all the necessary things which we need for initiating our household," said Ramandeep Kaur, a bride.

Amar Shahid Baba Jeevan Singh Gurduwara Committee bore all the expenses, including meals for the guests and gifts for the newly wed couples.
