This query is : Resolved
sir i secured one of the judgments of Orissa High Court regarding witnesses.
"It is not necessary that the witnesses to the marriage should prove all the details which taken together constitute a valid Marriage under the Hindu law".
Is it correct sir. to prove a marriage, party to a marriage need not come to court and prove a marriage.

"It is not necessary that the witnesses to the marriage should prove all the details which taken together constitute a valid Marriage under the Hindu law".
This statement does not say that the witness need not come to court. It says that the witness shall not prove ALL DETAILS.
It can be interpreted that the witness need to prove the essential details of marriage.
Which is that citation???
Would like to see the judgment. Further comment can be made only after perusing the judgment.

factum of marriage has to be proved.
A witness to the marriage can sometimes not have attended all ceremonies.

Witnesses to marriage may attend pars of ceremonies . So all details cannot be proved.
