Not advisable and lawful under the Hindu Marriage Act 1955. Marriage on compassionate grounds as stated in the question can be performed and it will not be null and void as such however the girl has right to get it annulled when she reach the age of 18 years.

It will be child marraige and you may be prosecuted of rape or under POSCO in such case consent of minor girl is not important.

Girl is under age and minor so marriage is not proper. The age of a girl's marriage is 18 years.

POSCO Act comes to play if there a s*xual assault or act done with minor. In case of marriage of minor by itself doesn't mean s*xual assault or act being done with her. Conjugal relationships in such case can remain suspended till the girl achieved the age of majority.

Conjugal relation can remain suspended...?? How?? Can the marriage be performed in such a situation?
