Canadian Woman Travels to India to Marry Dating App Match, Man Refuses After Learning Her Age

A 61-year-old Canadian woman travelled to Rajasthan to marry a man she met on a dating app, but the marriage plans fell apart after the man allegedly refused to proceed upon learning her age.

According to police, the woman had been in contact with Nitin, a resident of Panipat, Haryana, for nearly a year. Their friendship gradually developed into a relationship, and they decided to get married.

The woman arrived in Delhi on November 11 on a tourist visa, where Nitin received her and took her to Neemrana in Rajasthan. The two stayed at a flat belonging to his relatives for two days.

However, after learning that the woman was around 61 years old, Nitin reportedly refused to marry her, leading to a dispute.

Following the disagreement, the woman contacted the Canadian Embassy on November 13. Neemrana Police subsequently intervened and brought both individuals to the police station.

Police have taken Nitin into custody for questioning, while the Canadian woman has been accommodated at the Core Centre in Kotputli. Nitin reportedly works as a teacher at a private school.

Police said an investigation is underway and further action will be taken based on its findings.
