Hon'ble Om Prakash Shukla,J. 1. Heard learned counsel for the petitioners, learned A.G.A. for the State and perused the record. 2. By means of this writ petition, petitioners have prayed for issuance of mandamus commanding the opposite parties not to harass the petitioners and interfere in their peaceful married life. 3. Petitioners claim to have married each other of their own volition and also claim that on the date of their marriage i.e. 23.12.2024, they were of marriageable age. The marriage certificate dated 23.12.2024 issued by the Arya Samaj Shivpuri Kamta, Chinhat, Lucknow is annexed as Annexure-1 to the writ petition. Petitioner no.1 has annexed a copy of her Class-5th Marks Sheet as Annexure-2 and petitioner no.2 has annexed a copy of his Aadhar Card as Annexure-3 to the writ petition as proof of age. Learned counsel for the petitioners submits that there is no F.I.R. against the petitioners and they are not wanted in any criminal case yet the police is harassing them at the behest of family members who are not agreeable to the marriage. Therefore, this petition has been filed seeking a writ of mandamus directing the opposite parties not to interfere in peaceful married life of the petitioners. 4. Learned counsel for petitioners also undertake to get the marriage of petitioners registered under the U.P. Marriages Registration Rules, 2017 within a period of four weeks. 5. In view of the above, it is provided that if the petitioners have married each other and are living together, were of marriageable age on the date of their marriage and they are not wanted in any criminal case then the police shall not unnecessarily interfere in their peaceful married life. 6. It is, however, made clear that this Court has not entered into nor adjudicated the age of the petitioners nor veracity/validity of the alleged marriage. 7. Accordingly, the writ petition is disposed of. .
