Woman Marriageble age should extend for society welfare

Woman Marriageble age should extend for society welfare

The Issue

" Education is the most powerful weapon which you can use to change the world. Education is the key to eliminate gender inequality, to reduce poverty  to create sustainable planet to preventing needless deaths and illness, and to fostering peace" - Nelson Mandela

 Why Education is extremely important 

  • For happy and stable life 
  • Money 
  • Equality 
  • Make you self dependent 
  • Turns your dreams to reality 
  • Make the world a safer and peaceful place 

Well everyone of us know importance of education.But what about those girls who had to get married at the age of 18 ? Or what about those who were not able to complete their education because of marriage and early pregnancy? Or those who got married because of family issues? 

And they feel like burden.they feel like their life is wasted. And why won't they?. They were not even given chance to prove themselves.To do something for beautiful earth. 

Indian law under the Hindu Marriage Act has defined the marriageable age of a boy and girl. Legally a boy in India needs to be 21 and girl needs to be 18 years of age at the time of marriage. 

I think it's high time for Indian Constitution to extend marriageable age for girls to 21 years. So that they'll able to complete their education like boys.And will have opportunity to prove themselves. 

 

So I request all of you to support my petition 

And be a part of this change :)
