When a marriage has been dissolved by a decree of divorce under Hindu Marriage Act, 1955 and there is a right of appeal, the divorced persons may marry again:
Answer and explanation
Correct answer D
HMA section 15 permits remarriage after the appeal period has expired without an appeal being presented, or after a presented appeal has been dismissed. Where a right of appeal exists, the bare decree does not by itself permit immediate remarriage. The offered arbitrary one/two-month periods do not reproduce the statutory condition; the actual appeal period and filing history matter.
