A case has been registered against a woman for allegedly trying to marry off her 17-year-old daughter for the fourth time in the span of one year in Maharashtra's Jalna district, police said on Saturday.
The police on Friday rescued the minor girl, who was allegedly being married off for the fourth time by her mother and brother, an official said.
