🏛 Supreme Court’s Landmark Judgment: Shakti Vahini v. Union of India (2018) 7 SCC 192

⚖️ Principle: Preventing Honour Killings

In the landmark case Shakti Vahini v. Union of India (2018) 7 SCC 192, the Hon’ble Supreme Court of India issued preventive, remedial, and punitive measures to combat honour killings and protect the fundamental right of adults to choose their life partners.

The Court unequivocally held that khap panchayats or family members cannot interfere in the marriage of two consenting adults, regardless of their caste, religion, or community background.

💡 Why This Judgment Matters

This judgment reinforces the constitutional guarantees of liberty, privacy, and dignity under Articles 19 and 21 of the Constitution. It ensures that every adult citizen has the right to marry a person of their choice — without fear, pressure, or violence.

Arya Samaj Marriage is a legally recognised Hindu marriage performed according to the Vedic rituals of the Arya Samaj Temple. It is an ideal option for Hindu couples and inter-caste Hindu marriages seeking a simple, low-cost, and lawfully valid ceremony under the Hindu Marriage Act, 1955.

After the ceremony, a marriage certificate issued by the Arya Samaj Temple and further registered under Section 8 of the Hindu Marriage Act by the Registrar of Marriages gives it full legal validity across India.
