Can a DNA test be forced if she refuses consent?

A girl is blackmailing a guy to get a registered marriage done because she claims to be pregnant. The guy is not physically involved with her, but with someone else. She is forcing him to marry her, threatening to file a case or even harm herself by writing his name. Since she is pregnant by another man, can a DNA test be done? She is not agreeing to the DNA test.

Sir, if the girl is threatening self-harm or blackmailing then it is important to report the matter to the police. If the girl is claiming that the man is the father of her child, he has the right to seek a DNA test to confirm the paternity. However, a DNA test can only be conducted with consent, and if she refuses, the man can approach the court for an order. It is advised to consult an expert lawyer who will assist you with the best course of action. For further legal assistance contact us on our helpline number.
