LAW SOON TO CURB MARRIAGE OF GIRLS TO OLDER ARAB MEN

The Telangana government is mulling tabling an ordinance or bill in the Legislative Assembly to bring about an end to marriage of girls to citizens of Arab countries. According to the minorities’ welfare department secretary Syed Omer Jaleel, a file has been circulated about the cases in which minor girls have been married to much older men from Arab countries. The file also contains a list of possible measures that can act as a deterrent if the bill is passed in the Assembly.
