EFFECT ON MARRIAGE IN THE ADVENT OF LEGAL RECOGNITION OF LIVE IN RELATIONSHIP

EFFECT ON MARRIAGE IN THE ADVENT OF LEGAL RECOGNITION OF LIVE IN RELATIONSHIP M. Yesaswini Sai Nikitha, Student at Dr.B.R.Ambedkar College Of Law, Andhra University Download Manuscript ABSTRACT Marriage is an ancient sacred institution which is followed by the Indians as part of their own traditions and cultural beliefs. It has utmost importance and in all almost all the religions in India it is performed according to their own culture. This matrimonial institution regulates the relationship between a man and a woman and specifies their rights and duties. The concept of live in relationship is not an ancient practice that is been in India for ages. It is the relation in which a male and a female who are unmarried live under the same roof. This concept is one of the modern cultures that have been adopted from the foreign countries, especially originated in the western nations. This bond of live in relation has slowly evolved and being practised by many Indians. But it’s not completely accepted by the citizens of India as many of the families are with conservative attitude. It’s mostly found in urban cities but not largely observed across rural towns. If they are discovered also, mostly these kinds of associations are maintained in secrecy. So, the issue arises, whether these live in relations are legal or not. And if they are considered lawful what is the effect of these unmarried associations on the matrimonial institution. How the children’s rights and status, who are produced from the above said relation, can be determined and which law regulates the live in relation is the main query that arises.

TOWARDS INCLUSIVITY: EXPLORING THE ADDITION OF SAME-SEX MARRIAGE TO THE SPECIAL MARRIAGES ACT

TOWARDS INCLUSIVITY: EXPLORING THE ADDITION OF SAME-SEX MARRIAGE TO THE SPECIAL MARRIAGES ACT Govind Dhir, 4th year Student at TNNLU. Download Manuscript ABSTRACT In recent years, India has made progress in LGBTQIA+ rights, notably by legalizing consensual same-sex relationships in 2018 through the Navtej Singh Johar v. Union of India[1] ruling, which struck down Section 377 of the IPC. However, the article argues that more steps are needed to fully eliminate discrimination against same-sex couples. While the criminalization of homosexuality has been lifted, legal recognition for their relationships is still lacking. India’s existing marriage laws only recognize unions between heterosexual couples, leaving same-sex couples without benefits and legal acknowledgment. The article underscores the need for legal recognition of same-sex marriage in India to ensure full LGBTQIA+ equality and dignity, emphasizing the importance of societal acceptance and constitutional principles like Article 14. The article explores strategies for achieving legal recognition, including the adoption of ‘civil union’ as seen in other countries. Changing personal laws to recognize these unions may face opposition based on religious beliefs, making amendments to the Special Marriage Act of 1954 or introducing a new law governing the civil rights of same-sex couples more practical options. Activists and organizations continue to advocate for the legalization of same-sex marriage through legal challenges. Legalizing same-sex marriage is seen as a transformative step towards justice and inclusivity.

LEGAL ASPECTS OF MARRIAGE OF MENTALLY UNSTABLE INDIVIDUALS Garima Sachan, Student at Hidayatullah National Law University. Download Manuscript ABSTRACT The legal aspects of marriage of mentally unstable individuals are complex and often raise ethical and moral questions. Marriage is a legal and social institution that confers a range of rights and obligations on individuals. For mentally unstable individuals, their ability to understand the nature and consequences of the marriage contract may be impaired, which gave rise to the question about their capacity to consent to marriage. Thus, it is essential to protect the rights and interests of mentally unstable individuals who may be vulnerable to exploitation or abuse.
