The Supreme Court on Tuesday dismissed a petition filed by the National Commission for the Protection of Child Rights (NCPCR) over the issue related to the minimum age of marriage for Muslim girls.
In its petition, the NCPCR challenged a decision of the Punjab and the Haryana High Court that held the love marriage between a 21-year-old Muslim man and a 16-year-old Muslim girl as valid under the provisions of the Muslim Personal Law.
