Can a child marriage be considered illegal and can I re-marry?
13-Jan-2023 (In Divorce Law)
I had got married(child marriage) when I was just 16 years old to a girl who was 17 years old in Rajasthan forcefully.She did not come to my house immediately.When I was 20 years old, she came and stayed with me for 2 years and then both departed due to incompatibility issues.Since 2014 we are living separately till now. Can I re-marry another girl? Does the relationship I was with that girl for 2 years define a live-in -relationship or would it be defined as a marriage because we weren't majors when we tied a knot ! Will there be any complications if I re-marry? would this be considered as bi-gamy as per law if I marry someone now?
Respected,
See First of all the child marriage is itself offense and the said marriage cannot be consider as Valid Marriage under Law. AS you informed she is elder then you. When came to your place she is major and you are still minor. Now only 4 years has lapsed.
As you told it may be in the form of Living Relationship. But for this marriage, both of your family member may be convicted. Dont proceed to marry another girl immediately. There are some legal technical methods which cannot be discussed here.
