TIMES OF INDIA - June 26 - Online matrimony portals are concerned that the rising tide of divorces across India could threaten their businesses. They are offering counselling services and free books on the dos and don'ts of a happy marriage. It is estimated that nearly half of marital break-ups involve partners who met online. "About seven cases out of every 10 that I handle are of marriages arranged through matrimonial websites," said UjwalaMandgi, a divorce lawyer. The online matrimony market is growing ~30% annually. Posting incorrect information on age, religion or marital status are the most common problems in online marriage portals, as is lying about salary.
