A. No. Parties to a marriage have the option of either marrying under their respective religious laws (Hindu Marriage Act, Indian Christian Marriages Act, etc.) or under the Special Marriage Act. If the parties choose that they will not marry under any of the religious laws or if it is an inter-religion marriage, they can opt for registering their marriages under the Special Marriage Act.
