This was the first time a couple has gotten married in a Government Old age home in Kerala. The couple had known each other for about 30 years. When Ammal’s husband passed away about 21 years ago, her husband had asked Menon, his long-time friend, to take care of Ammal after his death.Ammal said that, “After my husband passed away, I lived alone in my house for some years. Menon used to come home if I required some help. Later, I sold my house and shifted to a relative’s house, where I lived for many years. Menon would always come to see if I was okay or not and helped me a lot.However for a few years they lost touch. Two years back, Ammal moved to the old age home. Two months back even Menon came to the old age home to stay. They were very happy to meet each other and started talking. They then decided to get married and live their life together.The old age home decided to organise their wedding. They organised a Mehendi ceremony for Ammal and live streamed it on Facebook.
Minister Kumar said that, “This was one of my happiest days in life. Witnessing the marriage of Kochaniyan and Lakshmi Ammal at Ramavarmapuram old age home will always be a memorable experience. The management, social workers, other inmates and wellwishers had made this marriage a memorable one. This is the first wedding in a state-run old age home. The groom and bride were happy and energetic when they entered mandapam. I heartily wish that their married life is happy and peaceful,” said the Minister.Kumar also shared several pictures from the wedding which has been reshared by nearly 400 people.
