1.What is a time for valid Christian Marriage?[2]
Answer
The rule: section 10. Under the Indian Christian Marriage Act, 1872, every marriage must be solemnized between six in the morning and seven in the evening.
The three exceptions. The rule does not apply to these marriages.
- Church of England. A clergyman marrying under a special licence from the Anglican Bishop of the Diocese, or his Commissary, permitting another hour.
- Church of Rome. A clergyman marrying between seven in the evening and six in the morning, under a general or special licence from the Roman Catholic Bishop.
- Church of Scotland. A clergyman marrying according to the rules and customs of that Church.
Why fixed hours. Daylight hours make the marriage public. Anyone with a lawful objection can attend, and secret marriages are discouraged.
The penalty: section 69. Whoever knowingly and wilfully solemnizes a Christian marriage outside these hours commits an offence. The penalty is imprisonment up to three years and fine. The section does not apply to the three exceptions above.
The marriage is not void: section 77. A marriage solemnized under sections 4 and 5 is not void merely because of an irregularity in the time of solemnization. The officiant may be punished, but the couple remain married.
Witnesses. The same section 69 also punishes solemnizing a marriage without two witnesses besides the officiant.
Example. A licensed Minister marries a couple at nine at night. He may be prosecuted under section 69, but the marriage itself remains valid under section 77.
