Parents threatening me to disclose my illness if I marry my BF


30-Mar-2023 (In Family Law)

I suffered from scizophrenia in 2013. I want to marry a guy who knows about my history of illness and is ready to marry me but my family is not supportive of this and they said they will not let me marry him because he is of different caste and they will prove me mentally unfit in court. I am not experiencing any past symptoms and feel mentally fit and still want to marry the guy of my choice, please tell is there a way out for us.

Thank you for your question
Assuming you are a major by age and have have suffered schizophrenia in the past but are fit now, you can enter into a legally enforceable marriage. However, you will have to take steps to ensure that it is not challenged later in a Court on the pretext of your illness. For that purpose, a registration is advisable with a doctor's report to prove your mental capacity to enter into marriage.
If you wish to get any assistance with respect to getting your formalities completed, please feel free to get in touch with us.

Take a medical fitness certificate from government certified hospital/doctor and then marry.
In future u parents may not be able to prove you mentaly unfit...and they cannot if u r not mentaly unfit...

It is not that easy to prove in court more over if you are fit today no court will bar from marrying. So don't worry go ahead with ur decision. U will be successful. If ur bf agres noone can stop you from marriage. It will be fully legal. In case of any doubt u may call me
