Gujarat Proposes Mandatory Parental Consent For Marriage Registration

Описание: In a significant legal proposal, the Government of Gujarat has tabled amendments to the Gujarat Registration of Marriages Act, 2006, potentially making parental consent compulsory for marriage registration in the state.

The proposal was introduced in the Gujarat Assembly and described as a matter of “public importance.”

Under the proposed amendment, once a couple submits a marriage registration application, parents of both the bride and groom must be officially informed within ten working days. Their consent would be mandatory before registration is completed.

The government has also opened a 30-day window for public suggestions before finalising the amendment.

If implemented, applicants will be required to submit detailed documentation — including identity proofs, Aadhaar cards, birth certificates, wedding photographs, and declarations confirming whether parents have been informed. After verification by the Assistant Registrar, the application will be forwarded to the district or taluka Registrar. The marriage would be registered only after 30 days, subject to compliance with all requirements.

The state government says it is not opposed to love marriages but maintains that the move is aimed at preventing fraud, coercion, and forced conversions, and at protecting the dignity of women and Sanatan Dharma.
