How can I legally protect my marriage from parental interference?
Sir, we have been in love for the past 7 years. I am 23, and he is 22. My parents are not accepting our relationship due to caste differences and societal issues. At one point, they found out about us and treated me badly, like a dog, and harassed me. Now, we have decided to do a court marriage, but I fear that even after the marriage, my parents may try to separate us by using MLA recommendations, police support, or filing false cases. What should I do to protect my boyfriend and our marriage after the court marriage? How can I approach this legally?
To protect your marriage after a court marriage, obtain a certificate first to prove your legally performed marriage under the Special Marriage Act, 1954. Also, register harassment or threats from your parents because this would work in your favor as evidence for legal protection. So, always consult a lawyer to know your rights and prepare for potential legal challenges; they can even help you file a complaint under the Domestic Violence Act if necessary. If your parents try to harass or threaten you after marriage, register a complaint at the police station and even seek anticipatory bail to be safe against false cases.
