Question

Discuss about prohibition of child marriage act

Answer 1

The object of the Act is to prohibit solemnization of child marriage and connected and incidental matters. To ensure that child marriage is eradicated from within the society, the Government of India enacted Prevention of Child marriage Act 2006 by replacing the earlier legislation of Child Marriage Restraint Act 1929.

Answer 2

The Prohibition of Child Marriage Act 2006 came into force on 1 November 2007 in India. In October 2017, Supreme Court of India gave a landmark judgement criminalising sex with a child bride , hence removing an exception in India’s criminal jurisprudence which had until then accorded legal protection to men who raped their minor wives.
