You may get married with the girl through your local registrar of marriages and your marriage needs to be registered and then only it will have any legal sanctity. You may approach your local registrar office and need to give 30 days public notice of your marriage.

You both can get married under special marriage act at the sub-registrar office having jurisdiction over the girl's place or your place.
