A Bangladeshi Alms Seeker, identified as Moru Mia, has gone viral online after claiming that he has married 21 women because he could not turn down their marriage proposals.
In a video circulating on social media, Mia said he felt it would be disrespectful to reject women who approached him with proposals. He claimed that he had never made any special effort to attract them and that the women themselves had expressed interest in marrying him.
“I don't know what the women have liked about me. They come to me and ask me to marry
them. They should be the ones to say what they find interesting about me,” he said in the video. Mia admitted that he could not remember the names of all 21 women.
However, he recalled a few names, including Sheila, Nargis, Selena, Aalia, Tara, Jyotsna, Rabia and Parul. He also acknowledged that managing such a large family was difficult.
Mia is currently living with three of his wives in a single room. He continues to work as a beggar and said he sometimes chooses one of his wives to accompany him while begging.
