Justice Rekha Palli asked Delhi government and others to file a reply to the petition and listed the matter for December 23.
The Delhi High Court today issued a notice to the Delhi government to file a reply on the plea by a couple whose marriage could not be registered as the software system did not accept their application because they were underage when they married.
Justice Rekha Palli asked the state government and others to file a reply to the petition and listed the matter for December 23.
The couple have, in their plea moved through advocate J S Mann, sought to register their marriage.
The petitioners told the court that they approached the respondent for registering their marriage with all relevant documents but it could not be done as the software system did not accept their application because the husband was below the age of 21 years and wife was below the age of 18 years at the time of their marriage on May 28, 1981.
