Seems pretty unlikely the commoners banned from attending the funeral procession are worried the queen will fail to attend their own funeral now.

In the UK it was the funeral of a single dead rich guy and a singular instance. OP just said that weddings are the basis for societal wealth. Without an alternative in an already poor nation, how do you expect them just to change, shrug their shoulders and say oh well, guess we are poor forever now.

Or stop treating women as cash cows maybe

You’re missing the point - how do you think people find marriage partners there? Often at other people’s weddings.

The UK is very individualistic when compared to India. So the UK experience doesn’t translate so readily.

"Only strict government rule can fix this" kind of applies to the UK. We had quite a lot of rules and fines threatened.

They did stick to the 30 max attendees rules
