The Love Commandos are a Voluntary Organization in India
dedicated to helping India’s lovebirds who want to marry for love,
opting for a "love marriage" instead of an "arranged marriage" arranged
by their parents according to their Jāti under the Indian Caste System, religion and economic status.
They were featured on the Aamir Khan hosted show Satyamev Jayate aired on 3 June 2012 24x7 Telephone helpline.
The 24x7 helpline number of Love Commandos is 09313784375.
The simple act of falling in love opens up a world of emotions and
reactions which sometimes culminate in crime – the death of the couple.
Even if they escape death, lovers who go against religious and community
barriers still have to face harassment and censure from society and,
due to this pressure, rejection from their families. But the law is
clear, that consenting adults are free to marry. And there is an
organization which protects couples, helps them fight harassment and
gives them shelter so they can marry freely.
Satya Mev Jayate episode about an Inter - Caste marriage.
Why inter-caste marriages are rejected in India?
There are various reasons because of which elders in the Hindu society flinch away from inter-caste marriages like:
They fear of the societal norms and social standingLoss of reputation.
The cultural difference- they believe that the couple will not be able to settle down and religiously follow each other’s culture.
They believe that the children born out of the inter-caste marriage will not be perfect.
Torture that the family and the couple has to face at the hands of the society.
Hampering the growth of the society
Create fissures among different social groups and castes
Poses a threat to the national unity
Various love couples either end their life or are killed
It is the responsibility of the younger generation to make their elders realize that the rigid caste system is morbid and has a dark future ahead. The youngsters can take various steps on their part to demolish this system:
The girl or boy should be
introduced as a friend to the family and be allowed to earn their love and
respect .
The qualities of the person you love should be highlighted in front of the family members .
Try and learn the customs of each other’s caste. This will enable you to earn the love of the family members.
Try and show your family members how this kind of systems are obstructing the progress of the nation.

Inter-Caste Marriage And Benefits!!
kids from inter-caste marriages are exposed to learning two different
cultures. But then, there is a challenge in putting efforts towards such
marriages. Apparently, coming from two different upbringings and
culture, it takes good initiative from the partners to ensure that the
relationship works. That is possible through a strong force called love
and understanding.
- Tolerance

- Sea of knowledge
Is there any rule that says that one should not read the Holy Book of
a faith that they don’t follow? Of course not; couples of inter-faith
marriages have an opportunity to learn about the other’s religion, which
allows them to understand their spouse’s faith and respect it.
Knowledge gained is something that is never wasted.
- Celebrations

Love has no caste or religion.
Love is god.
