Marriages and matchmaking in India have caste as a vital category. The long prevalent caste system is a big consideration, especially among the elderly who are finding suitable prospects for their children. Caste has also been responsible for breaking marriages. But one woman, Jyothi KG from Kerala is going viral for keeping a 'no caste bar' and an extremely to the point post for finding her a groom.

While matrimonial sites are the go-to option for many people, Jyothi thought of utilising the power of the social media giant Facebook. A resident from Malappuram district, she put up a post on her profile looking for a potential guy to marry. Her post read, "I am unmarried. If my friends know anyone, do let me know. I have no demands. Both caste and horoscope don't matter. My parents aren't alive. I have studied B.SC in Fashion Designing. I am 28 years old. My brother is working in Mumbai and my sister is a student. Here's my address." Soon after putting a post, it got an immense response. When Jyothi posted her requirement of the groom, she got nearly 6000 shares and 10,000 likes. The comments section has some people who have expressed an interest in meeting her and given their contact details. Did You Know About Facebook Dating Feature?

Jyothi in fact even appealed to Mark Zuckerberg to include matrimony as a core feature of the network. While becoming friends through Facebook, blossoming friendship to love and then marrying is a love story of many people from the generation who is hooked onto the internet, but no one usually puts it out there about seeking a bride/groom. But Jyothi's appeal to include matrimony has even appealed to several other users about how they can use the medium for searching prospects. While the post looks into matrimony as a feature, Jyothi sets an example with very few demands and dismisses the commonly asked 'caste and horoscope.'
