Everyone has been invited to a wedding ceremony but have you ever heard of a ceremony meant to celebrate divorce?

An invitation card for a divorce celebration ceremony in Bhopal has gone viral on social media.

An NGO named Bhai Welfare Society decided to organise the event on September 18, saying that the initiative will "motivate" people that life doesn't end after divorce.

Interestingly, the programmes listed in the now viral invitation included 'rituals' like immersion of the wedding garland (Jaymala), 'Gents Sangeet' (musical event similar to ladies sangeet in marriage ceremony).

However, some groups and individuals staged protests after which the event had to be cancelled.

The organisers said they are not against women, but only want to prevent the misuse of laws.
