After refusing to go ahead with the marriage, Hemalatha, a post-graduate, told reporters she will now consider matrimony only after she is in a position to support herself.
Last year, a similar case had hit headlines when Nisha Sharma of Noida refused to marry after the groom's
family allegedly demanded dowry.
