Marriage does not change the cast status.

she retains the same cast status as was prior to marriage.

Thanks sir,but is there any notification about the cast verification of women before the judgement of high court came in 2010?

Special marriage act is for marriage between different religion.

Caste would be as per birth.

Please give gist / citation of the judgement referred by you.

Caste and religion are two different connotations which should not be mixed. General caste and SC caste are part and parcel of Hindu religion.

Both (the boy and girl) are Hindu irrespective of their caste, the marriage shall be solemnised and performed as per Hindu rites and customs, as could be found from given facts.

Provisions of Special Marriage Act apply where there is different religion.
