The Gujarat High Court has ruled that marriage registration alone does not make a Hindu marriage legally valid if essential customary rites, including Saptapadi, are not performed. The court set aside a family court order in a case involving an alleged fraudulent marriage and reaffirmed that, under the Hindu Marriage Act, customary ceremonies are mandatory for a valid Hindu marriage. Watch to understand the legal significance of this landmark judgment and what it means for Hindu marriages in India. Thank you for watching our video!
