After the marriage of two different religions, no woman can be compelled to observe the husband's faith after marriage. In this case, the wife will do any religion - her personal decision. The ruling Bench comprising five judges, headed by Chief Justice of India Supreme Court Deepak Mishra, passed the verdict on Thursday in a case filed by a Parsi woman.
The Persian woman, Gulrok M Gupta, married a Hindu man. Then, by issuing a ban on him to join his parents' funeral, the Persian organization 'Valsad Zoroastrian Trust' Trust has been informed that Gulrok was displaced by marrying in different religion. That is why he can not join the funeral of his parents. Gulrukh appealed to the Bombay High Court against the sanctions of the trust. But the Bombay High Court reserves the ban. After challenging the Bombay High Court verdict, Gulrukh appealed to the Supreme Court of India.
The Supreme Court's constitutional bench on Thursday heard the case. After the hearing the court gave the verdict. It is said in the verdict that it is not said in the law that if two people of different religions are married, then the wife must obey the religion of the husband. In any way, the wife can not be compelled to keep her religious rituals. Wife will perform any religious rituals, it is solely her personal decision.
