BOMBAY HC 

Sikh couple moves Bombay High Court for implementation of Anand Marriage Act in Maharashtra (sep 27, 2022)

The plea filed by the advocate couple earlier this month noted that ten states in India, including Delhi, Punjab, Kerela, Assam and Rajasthan, have already framed rules for implementation of the Act.

The Anand Marriage Act seeks to give statutory recognition to a marriage rite of the Sikhs called 'Anand'. Thus, any marriage performed according to the 'Anand' ceremony is valid with effect from the date of its solemnisation.

As per the petition, the Anand Marriage Act was promulgated in 1909. It was amended in 2012 making it mandatory for states to frame their rules for the implementation of the act.
