TITLE: CHANGING SCENARIO IN MARITAL RELATIONSHIPS: A CRITICAL STUDY IN INDIA
ABSTRACT: Traditional Indian personal law imposed a number of prohibitions on marriage. But as technology develops, marriage’s definition and significance are constantly altering. The evolving nature of marriage in India has been the subject of discussion, study, evaluation, and critical analysis in this article. These sources include historical writings, legal texts, journals, national and international agreements, and judicial decisions. The goal of this essay is to examine the changes made to the Indian marriage institution. In urban regions, behaviours that were once taboo, such as live-in relationships, adultery, and same-sex relationships, are now widespread. The world’s ethical and legal societies must take the necessary steps to protect the concept’s originality and rationalism if it is to avoid becoming increasingly popular.
