This official record confirms that at the time of her marriage to Farman Khan in Kerala on March 11, 2026, Monalisa was only 16 years and 2 months old. The investigation concluded that forged documents were systematically employed to misrepresent her as an adult for the purpose of the wedding. The fallout of this administrative lapse has resulted in the transfer of Maheshwar Municipal Council CMO Priyank Pandya to Dhamnod in Dhar district, while Dhamnod CMO Maya Mandloi has been appointed to take over the Maheshwar office.
The case has ignited a political firestorm, with Khargone’s BJP MP Gajendra Singh Patel releasing a video statement labeling the incident a "Love Jihad" conspiracy. The Member of Parliament alleged that a minor girl from a Hindu family was kidnapped through deception, taken to Kerala, and forced into marriage through the manipulation of legal documents. Emphasizing that a Hindu girl was specifically targeted, Patel has demanded that the police take the strictest possible action against those involved in the plot.
Compounding the gravity of the situation, the girl’s mother, Lata Bhosle, issued a tearful plea to the government, asserting that her innocent, minor daughter was trapped in a net of deception by Farman Khan. This high-profile exposure of document forgery and the exploitation of a minor social media figure has shocked the region, placing a spotlight on the legal and social vulnerabilities of minors and the urgent necessity for administrative accountability in the issuance of vital statistics.
