Himta Sarma said that we want to end the evil practice of child marriage. Therefore, marriages will be registered at the sub-registrar office. CM Himanta said that there will be no ban on the religious rituals followed by Muslims during the marriage ceremony, but registration by Kazis has been banned. Let us tell you that last month, the Assam Cabinet approved a bill to repeal the provisions of the Assam Muslim Marriage and Divorce Registration Act, 1935, under which underage marriage was allowed under special circumstances. But the question is whether a new bill will be brought regarding the registration of Muslim marriages in the country like Assam. This bill is also necessary to stop the marriage of minor children in the country.
