The Mizoram Compulsory Registration of Marriages (Amendment) Act, 2011

This Act amends the Mizoram Compulsory Registration of Marriages Act to prevent the registration of marriages involving individuals who are legally prohibited from marrying under the Prohibition of Child Marriage Act, 2006. It applies to anyone applying for marriage registration in the state. The amendment ensures that if either party is found to be a minor or otherwise ineligible under the central child marriage law, the marriage cannot be registered. This measure strengthens legal safeguards against child marriages by linking local registration requirements with national prohibitions, ensuring that only valid marriages are officially recorded.
