Christians, in India, are of two types according to the law. There are Indian Christians, who either converted to Christianity themselves or are descendants of those who converted to Christianity. The other type is Christians, belonging to the Church of Scotland, Church of England, Church of Rome. The marriage between Christians in India can either be under the Indian Christian Marriage Act, or the Special Marriage Act. The Indian Christian Marriage Act requires at least one of the parties to the marriage to be Christian, so inter-religious marriages are possible. The only problem is that once a couple get married under this Act, they can only get divorced according to the Indian Divorce Act. The grounds for divorce in that Act, are stricter than those in the Special Marriage Act. |
