You have to be atleast 21 years of age.

this is just an emotional outburst. Concentrate on your studies .

The marriage between underage are valid marriage, but the girl has an option to repudiate the same within 2 years of her turning 18. It is also called Option of Puberty, which is picked up from Muslim Marriage Laws and introduced in Hindu Marriage Act.

 

Also the other problems would be that the girl's parents would normally file cases like abduction, rape, inducement against you.

 

So let sanity prevail and if the girl is not pregnant, wait for the right time.

GET MARRIED and let anybody challenge it.

Why Avinash Kaur Ji,

 

Why get into dangerous zone, when you can wait and time make things easier for you.

 

Why not defer gratification and run after instant gratifications.

 

What would the guy do if there are 10 cases facing him at this tender age.

 

What would the gal do, if she is married once and the boy is roped in cases, her name would sully beyond repair.

Dont marry now.Else it will be a way to your Barbadi.

 

If she changes her version later then??I have seen many girls changing her statement at police station after getting held after eloping.

Dont trust teen aged girls.
