Another Method

A marriage certificate in India is a legal term that states that a husband and a wife are legally married. A couple can get a marriage certificate in India through two acts. The first is the Hindu Marriage Act, of 1955 and the second one is the Special Marriage Act, of 1954. 

The Supreme Court of India has made the marriage certificate in India compulsory from the year 2006. However, not everyone in India gets a marriage certificate after their marriage. 

But for women's protection after marriage in India, the Supreme Court wants each couple to register themselves to get a marriage certificate in India. 

Not only for the protection of women but it also helps as marriage proof for visa and passport. And it also helps in taking the decision in the case of any dispute after marriage.
