In its statement, the High Court said that if the marriage is done in violation of the minimum age limit under the Hindu Marriage Act, then it can be canceled, but not nullified. While filing the petition, it was told from the couple that when they got married in 2015, the boy was under 21 years of age. In 2019, when he applied to get the marriage registered, it was rejected saying that the boy was under 21 years of age at the time of marriage, hence it cannot be registered. Rejecting the application, it was said that this marriage was done in violation of the provisions of the Hindu Marriage Act, so it is not valid.

Hearing the petition, the High Court said that at present the boy is over 21 years of age and no application has been made by either party to declare marriage illegal. When no application has been received to declare marriage as illegal and now both the bride and groom are adults. Therefore, there should not be any hindrance in the registration of marriage. In this case, when the High Court sought a response from the Haryana Government, no concrete answer was given from the Government.
