| Summary, etc |
Solemnization of marriage is an important socio-cultural practice of invariably all communities. Each community approves its specific norms and rituals relating to marriage. Marriage is often lauded as a ‘holy ordinance’, ‘holy sacrament’ and an important ‘sanskara’. Although the formal legal systems define and govern the age at marriage but customary rules associated with puberty and purity of the girl child sanction and readily allow marriage before the legal age. Though there are other socio cultural and structural factors underpinning this practice, whatsoever, child marriage unleashes menacing effects on the girl child in myriad ways - from mental health issues to a lack of access to education and career opportunities and also adverse health effects as a result of early pregnancy and childbirth. The study aims to explore the critical pathways and nuances relating to child marriage and its intersectionality with other manifestations of gender inequality and oppression through a perusal of significant literatures so as to open up broad avenues for research in this field The paper intends to scan through policy imperatives to curb this practice. It’s a work not only of diagnosing the problem but envisaging measures on how to respond.- Reproduced |
