[A Roy]

I’m an Indian male and I can tell you right now that the Indian government has nothing against interracial marriages. There is no issue of it not being allowed, it’s more of an issue of cultural acceptance. To understand the culture you have to first understand the people and where they are comming from. Especially the religions they associate (not necessarly believe) themselves with (for example, I am a ‘Hindu’ but am not religious at all). In India there are over 800 million Hindus, 110 million muslims and another 10 million people of other faiths (Jain, Siekh, Catholic, Christian). The boys family probably has very conservative values and in many Indian marriages, you’re not just marrying the person you love, you’re marrying into the family. The family probably dosn’t approve because they do not see how they could integrate with yours. This is a socio-cultural thing. It’s going to mostly fall on the shoulders of the boy you want to marry whether to marry you and to endure a lifetime of complaing from his family. It’s not impossible, just have to tread lightly. My girlfriend is Filipino. My parents didn’t approve at first, but as they got to know her, they liked her more and more. Good luck.
