Does anyone really know when this law is really getting implemented in Delhi and what is the status of other states.

As per the HMA registration is not mandatory but here when the Delhi government makes it mandatory then what is the legal validity of marriages which is not yet registered ?

Delhi govt. issued order as per the directions are being issued in compliance with the Supreme Court judgment of February 2006, where it was mandated that states and union territories make marriage registration a must. The order lays down a uniform procedure.So every states and union territories  are compulsory issues such orders in future.

Registration of marriage flows from the edict of laws itself. Some laws do not lay down the provisions for registration of marriage as mandatory, where as some laws like Indian Christian marriage act etc; makes it mandatory for registration. This is the reason why Supreme court lucidly lay down  the problems of marriage registration in the above given judgment  with time  limit as three months from the date of Judgment.
