Prepare yourself and your girl friend to escape from parents and get married, the earliest.
Advocate M.Bhadra (Expert) 29 November 2013
In India Minimum age for girl to get married is 18 years and for boy to get married is 21 years.So,you should leave the relation or wait another 2 years otherwise you have to face legal problem.

Mr.Bhadra. The author did not disclose the age.
Mr.Gautham - what is your age and girl's age? You are still in the process of getting education. You are dependent on your parents. Where is the question of love and marriage at this stage?
Do not get into problems unnecessarily. Concentrate on your studies and career. If she can wait till you settle in your career, you can think of marrying her. Leave her to tackle her own problem. You will loose concentration on your studies at this stage. Have you consulted your parents? What is their opinion?

Better forget her till you become well settled and family of both agree. By this way only you would be able to enjoy your career and marriage.

You can not formally file a case of kidnapping/abduction against them since you are not related to her as yet.
However you can always ask the Police to search for her and record her statement.
If she makes such statement then Police can rescue her.
T. Kalaiselvan, Advocate (Expert) 29 November 2013
Mr. Barman rightly opined about the status and suggested you with some valuable tips. Before that kindly go through Mr. Rao's suggestions and decide about next course of action.

My ld. brothers skipped to read your query that "but we both are majors."!!
If YOu are 21 then file a writ of habeas corpus against her parents but only when you are sure she shall state to live with you in chambers of judges. You can then marry her and police protection would also be provided to you.

my age is 21+ and she is also of same age . and the particular thing she left everything for me her career,her parents,her relationships and is being harassed from last 2 years.
priyadarshee goutam (Querist) 29 November 2013
The victim name is Priya Kumari. Her age is 21+. She is being continuously harassed by her family members for her marriage. They stopped their studies and also didn’t allowed her for doing job. She is being tortured less physically and mentally by her parents from last 2 years till today .now she is currently residing at Kumarkhand ,dist-Madhepura ,Bihar. She was staying in Assam earlier and she was tortured physically and mentally by her parents. So she complained in police and then she was taken from there and brought to Bihar for marriage. Her family members fixed her marriage without telling her anything and the marriage date was 29th November 2013, but because of the complaint it was cancelled but today she is in same position as the before . But she complained in the police station that she is being forced to marry and got shelter home. Her brother named Amit Kumar Singh went there and he just convinced her telling he is in support of her. Then she made any agreement or not I don’t know because I could not contact her since then and they set up the situation like they told me to come over there within one month on or before 19th December,2013. She is also not getting any help from police. They threatened me and my family to kill if I will come over there. If I will go there as per the agreement it’s a great threat for me and as well as for my family. They threatened directly in the name of my sister that they are going to gang rape her. So, I am helpless and I cannot go there. Also I don’t have any official order from their side neither I am confirm whether or not the agreement is present or not since I did not get any copy of it. So today I am requesting to please help her as she is being forced to marry without her will. She needs support as well as security because she has attempted for suicide twice.

Proceed as advised by me.
priyadarshee goutam (Querist) 29 November 2013
what is the procedure..? to whom i will talk or to whom i will make this statement .?
prabhakar singh (Expert) 29 November 2013
You need to go to a High COURt advocate.
Devajyoti Barman (Expert) 29 November 2013
Engage an advocate.
malipeddi jaggarao (Expert) 30 November 2013
Age 21 for a male, though major, is not to take the responsibility of marriage when the he is in the process of education. You will be guided by passions at this age. According to me, better forget the entire episode and concentrate on your career. It is for the girl to protect herself from the clutches of her family and let her take her own decision. Marriage is only a part of life, not the whole life. Fighting a legal battle against the wishes of her family will not keep you in peace in future. It is for you either to follow the advice of ld.expert Mr.Barman or give a thinking before you leap. Decision is yours. I fully endorse the advice of Mr.Barman if you wish to face the consequences and invite unrest for you and your other family members.
Dr J C Vashista (Expert) 30 November 2013
Get both of you tied in matrimonial knot,wait and watch and then take further decision as the situation demands. Nothing will go wrong, it's your apprehension. God is great.
Best wishes
