Section I
CASE STUDY:
No Minor Offence
Census data reveals high level
of under – age marriages Census statics are generally full of
surprises. But this one is startling:
6.4 million Indians under the age of 18 are already married. That’s not
all. As many as 1.3 lakh girls under 18 are widowed and another 56,000 are
divorced or separated. The legal marriageable age for women is 18, for men 21.
A century and a half after Ishwarchandra Vidyasagar’s crusade against child
marriage, the practice persists. Obviously, the Child Marriage Restraint Act,
1929, exists only on paper and has not been able to deter parents from marrying
off under –aged sons and daughters. The incidence is understandably higher in
rural areas, but not low as expected in the cities. It’s more common in the
BIMARU states, with Rajasthan leading the way ironically, the Act renders all
under-age marriages illegal but not void, which means that an illegally married
couple can stay married. It is, therefore, violated with impunity and hardly
anyone is ever hauled up. Despite the fact that child marriage is a criminal
offence, action is rarely taken by the police. Even civil society remains a
passive spectator. There’s not enough penalty-a fine of Rs.1, 000 and
imprisonment up to three shows that the state does not view the crime
seriously.
The practice is linked to the curse of dowry.
“Chhota Chhora dhhej kam mangta” (the younger the groom, the smaller the dowry
demand) justifies many such alliances. The grimmest part of the scenario is the
physical havoc that early marriage wreaks upon girls who are too young to bear
the burden of maternal and child mortality. There is also the belief that a
daughters’ marriage is a scared obligation that parents must fulfill at the
earliest. A new legislation, Prevention of Child marriages Bill, 2004, to
replace the loophole-ridden 1929 Act is awaiting parliament’s approval. But
legislation alone is not enough. Compulsory registration of marriages is one
way of tackling the problem. Creating awareness about the ill-effects of such
marriages and mobilizing committed social workers to intervence are others.
However, social workers have to often function in hostile conditions. The 1992
case of Bhanwari Devi, the Rajasthan saathin who was raped for preventing a
child marriage, is chilling. In the end only education, economic security and
increasing empowerment of women can eliminate the problem.
