Question: Hindu marriages 1 or 2 - Page 4

Going back to the marriage ritualistic marriages (phere marriages) to more then one woman are not allowed however no police enforcement is being made to arrest polygamists which are going ahead with these marriages. Which is the same as acceptance because if no-one is enforcing laws of this nature that's the conclusion. I don't blame the law enforcers really here as if two people accept to live together and decide to do some ritual and lie to each other they are married but in reality they are just lovers bearing children, the onus is on the first wife to file a bigamy case for punishment to be made on the wrongdoers.

My next question here is those officiating the ritualistic marriages are they given the responsibility to inform the registrar of marriages or do they only bear witness that they officiated a marriage and sign the marriage certificate, if that's the case say Mohan Kundra and Meera were ritualistically married they marriage is stil valid and were she to be urged now by Sultan to go ahead with a case against the Kundra's could that case go ahead as MK is now dead, unless she is suing for inheritance for her son perhaps it would be allowed, Sitara studios is still there, but we don't know of any other property Mohan Kundra left behind.

See as per the hindu marriage act only one wife is allowed... it doesn't mean all your first marriages are legal and second marriages are illegal... There are certain rules in indian law...

the marriage may not be legitimate and proved void in the light of evidences, but there is some value attached to the institution of marriage and the rituals..they hold some importance...also, if a man is lying and marrying more than once, he has to have some responsibility towards his next wife and children, hence the law protect their rights and make the man liable to them...

forget about the court cases, civil cases such as these (family claiming rights over the property) run for 30-40 years..Sultan buddha ho jayega prove karte hue ke Meera is MK's wife ...uske baad bhi he won't get any right over the property...after 30 years, the rights over property and assets r transferred already and since nobody objected to it then, they cannot do it now...

@ Charu! What property can Sultan claim! Everything RK has including the RK mansion, has been made by him. Except for Sitara studio! Now that studio was bequeathed to him by MK, and must have been in his name for at least 11 years.

We have no right on any property made by our parents, we can only claim something that belonged to our grandparents. (Ancestral property). Our parents have right to give watever tey made to either all kids, or any one kid, or even to random people. So MK gave to RK!

We can only challenge our parent's will that it was not made with a sound mind. It has to be within a time frame. And especially not after the property has been under RK's name for so long.

No body can stake a claim on RK's property because its made by him. And only RK's kids can claim their right in Sitara studio.

Sultan can go ahead on this one man mission. His quest for Kundra last name is different, but how des RK get involved in this? MK is dead and RK n his mom were also cheated.
