Ajay was ordering some chhole-bhature next to a guesthouse when his wife arrived. And she counted the plates he’d ordered. She alleged that he was getting it packed for a woman with whom he has an affair and was taking it to the guesthouse.
The number, two, gave it away, said the wife.
Police officials confirmed that neither side has lodged a formal written complaint or FIR so far. Police arrived eventually as this scene exploded on an otherwise quiet Tuesday afternoon in the pilgrimage town of Brijghat in Uttar Pradesh’s Hapur. As the argument grew more heated, cops from the nearby Brijghat police outpost arrived. After an extended discussion, the couple agreed to try for a compromise and left together.
She gathered some relatives and arrived in the holy town on the Ganga’s banks. It didn’t take long to spot him. Ajay was standing outside a street food shop near a local guesthouse, waiting for two packed plates of chhole-bhature. Before he could pick up the order, his wife and her family surrounded him.
Kavita said she’d got a tip-off about Ajay’s latest fling.
