REGISTRATION OF MARRIAGE CANNOT BE DENIED ON THE GROUND THAT MAN WAS 18 YEARS OF AGE The petition was filed by a couple having one child before the court that their marriage was not being registered by the competent authority on the ground that at the time of marriage, age of the bridegroom was 18 years. They relied on the judgement in the case of Baljit Kaur Boparai and another Vs. State of Punjab and another (2008) wherein the Court had directed the Registrar of Marriages that it shall not refuse to register the marriage on the ground that couple had solemnized their marriage when one of the spouse was less than 21 years of age. The matter is adjourned as of now to August 28 on the request of Additional Advocate General appearing for the State.
