A.Dear Sir/Madam,
Now, education has become commercial so parents might invest huge amounts more probably with a ray of hope getting returns during their old age. If you get marry outside the caste they may feel financially insecure. Do something to solve this problem which may make them give consent for your marriage.

A.Dear Client,
To make a marriage legally valid, essential conditions as laid down under Sec.5 of the Hindu Marriage Act, 1955 shall be met by the couple. Amongst others, both parties must be of legal age to marry. The bride must be at least 18 years old and the husband must be at least 21 years old at the time of the marriage. Once both partners reach marriageable age, they have the right to decide marriage independently on their own, and any objection from anybody including parents is not maintainable. Mental harassment and threats of dire consequences by parents following the proposed marriage may be considered domestic violence and you can file a complaint under the D V Act against your father at the local police station and may bring the matter to the notice of the Chairperson, State/National Women's Commission and Human Rights Commission or an NGO rendered dedicated social service in the matter for resolving the issue. Sometimes proper counseling by an expert resolves the matter amicably.
