forced marriage against my consent and i would like to annul/nullify


11-Sep-2023 (In Family Law)
hi there I was forced to marry a boy who i didnt want to. Before marriage i have even told him we have different thinking, i think we should not get married. But still marriage occured against my consent. It was 10 days ago. This week I left his house and went to my friend as he wanted to come closer against my will. When i came to know that they were going to file a case against my family, next day I came back. My question is .....how can I annul or nullify this marriage?

Madam, sufficient and enough detail are missing. Date of marriage. Your age at the time of marriage, whether you were minor or major at that time. IfHindu Marriage Act applies to you, whether option for to file for divorce (in case of valid marriage) or to get marriage annulment (in good or void able marriage) depends on some factors. Regards
