Repeal of Assam's Muslim Marriage Law
The Assam Cabinet's decision to repeal the state's Muslim marriage law, a nearly 90-year-old act, marked an important step towards implementing a uniform civil code in the state. Originally enacted in 1935 for voluntary registration, it later became compulsory for Muslim marriages and divorces. The rationale behind repealing the law was primarily to curb child marriages, as the old act allowed underaged brides and grooms to be registered, aligning with Muslim personal law. The move triggered discussions on potential implications and the shift to registering marriages under the special marriage act.
