No Parental Approval Needed! J&K High Court Protects Couples Marrying Against Parents' Wishes – Love Wins Over Family Pressure!

The Jammu and Kashmir and Ladakh High Court has once again stated that no parental or family consent is needed to approve the consent of the adults in their marriage, where couples are threatened after marrying the people of their own choice, contrary to what the relatives wanted them to. This was stressed by the court as a constitutional right in Article 19 of the constitution as well as in Article 21, and it is up to the individual and not to the society or family pressure.
