She was minor when her marriage was performed on 20.06.2023 with Vijay Kumar who was also minor. Both the girl and the boy loved each other and finally their marriage was performed on 20.06.2023.

In case of their arrest, they be released on bail to the satisfaction of Arresting/Investigating Officer concerned, subject to condition that petitioners will join investigation as and when required.
