The Assam Assembly has passed a bill requiring government registration of Muslim marriages and divorces, replacing a 1935 law. The new legislation aims to prevent child marriages, ensure consent, protect women’s rights, and curb polygamy. Previous registrations by Qazis remain valid, while new marriages must meet specific conditions to be registered.
