Do you think you are eligible to fall in Love if you have already reached your 18 years of milestone?
The Karnataka High Court has proposed that the law to be amended to allow the arranged marriages for girls at 18 and love marriages only at 21. A division bench of the High Court was of the view that girls should not be allowed to choose their love partners on their own till they turn 21.
Justice K. Bhakthavastsala and Justice K. Govindarajulu insisted that the Parliament had not taken into account love marriages when the Bill was introduced, since the Hindu Marriage Act does not deal with Love Marriages. They proposed that this is the high time to amend the law suitably so that the sufferings of such girls and their parents will be controlled.
In the practical scenario, we are witnessed of so many love and affairs, where the teen girls fall in love of their guys with lot of hopes and expectations, after a certain period of their married life when those dreams and hopes are not fulfilled they repent and curse on each other, which in turn affects both the family members also.
And the rest of their life covers with tragedy and depression.
In the context of such incidents, the above judges suggested that "Run Away Marriages" (which is better known as typical love marriages) of girls under 21 years to be declared as Void or Voidable.
