The Supreme Court of India has directed 17 states and 7 union territories to establish rules within four months for registering Sikh weddings, known as Anand Karaj, under the Anand Marriage Act, 1909.
The court emphasized the need for a neutral, uniform, and fair process to ensure these marriages are recognized and certified on equal footing with other marriages, upholding civic equality and constitutional principles.
It also tasked the central government with coordinating the effort and providing model rules to assist states and UTs.
The order aims to address long-standing disparities in marriage registration and ensure all citizens, regardless of religion, have equal access to legal recognition of their unions.
