Court plea on child marriage

Staff Reporter

NEW DELHI: A Division Bench of the Delhi High Court on Tuesday requested the Chief Justice to constitute a Full Bench to decide whether a child marriage could be declared void.

Shali referred the matter to the Chief Justice in view of earlier judgments by various Benches of the High Court where minors were allowed to stay with their spouses.
