According to news reports, these families had converted to Islam four generations before, but they still worshipped Chamunda Mata as their kuladevi (family deity). Their wedding rituals were similarly Hindu in nature.
The rituals took place at the Sant Samaj in Nemawar, which is located at the further end of Madhya Pradesh’s Dewas district.
