Dear Experts,
Please allow me to present my concern.
I am a 32 year old partially observant Christian man living with with a 31 year old Hindu observant girl with the implicit sanction of our parents and immediate relatives. We are secular/plural with respect to our religious values. Immediate colleagues and society are aware of our more than 9 year old relationship. We never felt the need to marry but now have an urgent legal situation that requires us to marry right away (it is not pregnancy - just to clarify).
Please correct me and advise us on the following plan.
I become a member of the Arya Samaj this week (to take care of the Kerala HC Judgement) and convert to Hinduism(to make HMA applicable). Next, we get the marriage solemnised as per vedic rituals. Then, approach the registrar of marriages for our locality and get the marriage registered under HMA, 1955. All of a maximum of five days.
Please tell me where the flaws are or what problems you foresee. I shall hold your opinion/assistance/comments in high regard. Also, anyone with information on speeding up registration (exemption from notice period/legally backdating the notice) under the SMA, 1954 may kindly share.
Thank you.
