Under the Prohibition of Child Marriage Act, 2006, which of the following statements is correct?

Select one answer
Answer and explanation

Correct answer C

Section 6 deems every child begotten or conceived before the decree of nullity "to be a legitimate child for all purposes", whether born before or after the commencement of the Act. Annulment therefore does not make the children illegitimate, and legitimacy does not depend on the marriage continuing.
