Which of the following is not a condition for a marriage under Sections 5 of the Hindu Marriage Act?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer C
Hindu Marriage Act section 5 prescribes conditions including monogamy, the specified ages and relationship restrictions, subject to the applicable customary exceptions. It does not create a general right to substitute a guardian for everyone below twenty-one. Guardian representation consequently cannot replace the statutory marriage conditions.
