It is very rare for a forced marriage to occur. Usually they have arranged marriages, though. The parents find potential matches, they meet, and if the family and the bride/groom like each other well then they may decide to marry, but forcing them to marry is NOT a common practice.

No, Hinduism does not endorse or promote forced marriages. Hinduism encourages free choice and mutual consent in marriages. While arranged marriages are common in Hindu culture, where families play a role in finding suitable partners, it is distinct from forced marriages as individuals have the freedom to accept or reject the proposal.
