Can minor girl elope with a major boyfriend
04-Sep-2023 (In Family Law)
Sir I am a minor girl aged 15 years. I want to elope with my boyfriend who is 22 years old and working as Assistant Manager in reputed bank. We know each other for 5 years and fallen in love in due course. As we are Hindu and belong to different castes and so my parents are not ready for our marriage. When I discussed with my parents on this issue, they told me that they will marry me soon and never ever allow love marriage under any circumstances. They also threaten me that we can murder you and your boyfriend. I look more elder than I am due to my physique and so they have started searching boy for my marriage. Now, I am in dillema What should I do now. Kindly help me so that I can save my love. I shall remain grateful to you forever.
Dear client,
According you this time you cant do marriage before 18 it will be illegal , and more important that consent of a minor is not valid for sexual relation or marriage in the court , if you do so then your boyfriend will be liable for all offences concerning this matter .
I think you should have to keep wait or obey your parent and do the best in your upcoming life. There is no remedy to do legal marriage with your boyfriend..

Can you kiss a minor in India?
Indian Legal System do not prohibit. However, such a relationship is not acceptable under the Current Social Fabric of India. Is it illegal to kiss a minor without their consent? Not making out but just a quick kiss. First of all, if you are not related to the adult!
No. You can't do this. It would be illegal and your boyfriend can be trapped in a criminal case. You will have to remain in remand home till getting you a major. For avoiding your marriage, you may file an application before your concerned District Magistrate or police officer. Your school certificate would be conclusive proof regarding your age and the authority will help you.

Since you are a minor girl, do not even think about eloping with the boy, otherwise he will be in serious trouble . With regard to forceful marriage ,as your parents are considering, you can raise your voice against such proposal and you may take the help of local police or make complain to the childline.
