This would be governed by the Master Plan 2021 and the Vikas Upvidhi/building bye laws applicable in the state of up. The condition of running a banquet hall is that the marriage hall is required to be registered under the Sarais Act. The construction of a marriage hall has to be sanctioned by the Development Authority, which in the instant case iwould be merrut Development Authority. Under the Vikas Upvidhi of 2012 permission to run a marriage hall could be granted in a residential area too. The Development Authority is required to evaluate the proposed construction on the basis of the norms specified under the Upvidhi and thereafter grant or refuse such construction plan under the Urban Planning and Development Act of 1973.

In the event, an existing structure or building is being converted into a marriage hall even then it was obligatory for the Development Authority to evaluate whether such existing structure satisfies the specified norms as provided in the Upvidhi of 2012 and if it does not, in that event, the development authority would exercise their powers under the Act of 1973 for taking penal action for running such marriage halls.
