Indian christian marriage

Dear sirs namaste. I am free of doubt on the following issue.
The State Government may grant a license to
any Christian, either by name or as holding any office for the time being, authorizing him to grant certificates of marriage between indian christians. But Roman Catholics, is it sufficient to issue licence by Bishop of Roman Catholic? Please clarify my doubt sirs. thank you sirs.

The Roman Castholic church maintains Marriage Register and periodically sends report of marriages solemnized to the registering authorities for updating the Marriage Register.Every Roman Catholic church is licenced to conduct marriages among the congregation,hence no separate licence need to be issued by the Bishop.

Other than the churches, others who would like to be the registrar for Christian Marriages have to obtain licence from the competent authority. In the mean time you may answer the query raised by expert Mr. Venu.
