Hello,
I am a 27 year old boy working in Bangalore and my girlfriend (27 y.o.) too is here and are into 5th year of our relationship. We are living seperately. I am a Hindu and she is a Christian both of whose permanent residence is in Madhya Pradesh. We want to get married under Special Marriage Act. We have been here since the last 2 years only and only possess the rental agreements as a proof of residence. Will this suffice during the documentation procedure, if not then what should we do if we have to marry here only. I don't wish to go the Arya Samaj way.
As my mother is a widow and I don't want to give her a jolt with this news and only her father is right now convinced though only half-heartedly. So, I want to keep this a secret for sometime (meaning no notification of our marriage should reach either of our homes) such that we may later on have the situation in our hands to tell the truth.
Summing Up
1. Will the Rental agreement of Bangalore along with documents of other M.P. take us ahead.
2. Will the 30 day notice be sent to our Temporary or Permanent address else can it be held within the court anyhow.
3. Can this 30 Day notice period be reduced by any means.
I will be thankful to people who can provide us a way wade through so that these two hearts can rekindle permanently without any discord in the relationship.
Also please share any reference in this matter.
