Muslim Personal Law allows marriage after puberty, Punjab and Haryana HC says
- The Punjab and Haryana High Court said Muslim personal law allows a person to marry after attaining puberty.
- The ruling came while hearing a plea involving a Muslim couple seeking protection for their relationship.
- The court relied on earlier rulings that recognise marriage after puberty under Muslim Personal Law.
- However, the Supreme Court has said the 2022 HC ruling on a Muslim minor’s marriage cannot be treated as a precedent while its challenge is pending.
