Hindu Religion / 'Hindu marriage is not valid without seven rounds and rituals, it is a sacred bond'- Supreme Court gave a big order

Hindu Religion: The Supreme Court has recently issued a major order saying that without valid rituals, no marriage can be recognized under the Hindu Marriage Act. The court has said that Hindu marriage is an important sacrament and a sacred bond which has great importance in the Indian society. Along with this, the court in its order has also urged the young men and women to think deeply before getting married because according to the Indian society, marriage is a sacred bond.

What is the whole matter?

Actually, the bench of Supreme Court comprising Justice B.V. Nagarathna and Justice Augustine George Masih has given this order in the case of two pilots. Both the pilots did not get married according to legal rituals and had sought approval for divorce from the court. The court said that where a Hindu marriage is not performed as per the rites or rituals, it cannot be considered a Hindu marriage.

This is not an occasion for dancing and singing

The Supreme Court has clearly said that marriage is not an occasion for dancing, singing and eating. Nor is this an occasion to exert undue pressure and demand dowry and gifts. Marriage is a sacred union meant to establish a relationship between a man and a woman. The court also said that marriage is a basic unit of Indian society.
