Prohibition of Child Marriage Act states that a girl in India can't marry before the age of 18, and a boy before 21. - According to UNICEF, 47% of girls are married by 18 years of age, and 18% are married by 15 years of age.

Marriage of minor is strictly prohibited. You should ask the girl to immediately go to the nearest women's commission, or can write an application to them as also to the CM, DC, and Police station. They will stop the marriage.
