The Delhi Court, for example, ruled that Prohibition of Child Marriage Act, 2006 overrides all personal laws and governs each and every citizen of India The ruling stated that an under-age marriage, where either the man or woman is over 16 years old, would not be a void marriage but voidable one, which would become voidable at the option of the child entered into the marriage, the Act holds that a child marriage is voidable only upon the filing of a petition for annulment in district court. It is thus deeply problematic that the 2006 Act does not automatically declare child marriages void, only making them voluntarily voidable.

The High Court held that a child marriage is not automatically void under India’s civil laws if entered into by the ‘choice’ of the girl, but that the marriage would be voidable only at the option of the contracting party under the Prohibition of Child Marriage Act, 2006. This loophole thus seems to allow child marriages to continue to be legally valid,

Hello sir,

Actually for joining kids in school no marriage certificate is required, except birth certificate. And coming to ur marriage, it is valid marriage, because the marriage took place with both the parties consent, and it was consummated, she is major now, for further questions you can contact me.......

You have to prove the factum of marriage only through your ration card or other identity through which you can establish that both of you are spouse. Marriage certificate shall not be issued in your case.

When the foundation only is bad, how can you make a superstructure upon it? Meaning thereby, when your marriage only is not valid at first place, how can you get a marriage certificate?

This is a peculiar situation and you are not legally competent to get your marriage registered and obtain a certificate thereof.
