Marriage Certificate issues: green cards for parents in india

[Padmal]

I am a U.S. citizen and am currently applying for green cards for my parents, who reside in India. The I-130 petitions for both of them have been approved.
Regarding the DS-260 form: All the documents on my mom’s DS-260 have been accepted except for the marriage affidavit. My parents were married back in the 80s in a traditional ceremony, and unfortunately, they do not possess a formal marriage certificate. Instead, they obtained two marriage affidavits from their respective brothers.
Surprisingly, these affidavits were rejected for my mom’s application.
However, the same marriage affidavit attached to my dad’s application has been accepted.

Any information/suggestion on this scenario will be greatly appreciated.
