Which of the following, according to Hindu Marriage Law, separates a "Void Marriage" from a "Voidable Marriage"?
A void marriage is one in which the union is legitimate unless challenged in court, but a voidable marriage is one in which the union is regarded as invalid from the start.
Unlike voidable marriages, which remain legitimate unless legally dissolved by a court, void marriages are thought to have never existed in the first place and can be dissolved without following any formal legal procedures.
In contrast to a voidable marriage, which cannot be ratified or corrected, a void marriage may be ratified by the parties if they wish to maintain their connection.
If either partner files for divorce, a void marriage becomes voidable, and if it isn't dissolved within a year, a voidable marriage becomes void.
A marriage that is void from the beginning is one that has never existed. This indicates that the marriage was never recognised by the law. As they are not regarded as legally married in the first place, parties to a void marriage are free to remarry. A marriage could be void due to bigamy, marriage in partnerships that are forbidden, etc.Contrarily, a Voidable Marriage is legitimate and continues up until and unless it is declared null and void by a court of law. It may be revoked for reasons outlined by law, such as when one person is incapable of consenting, when there was fraud or coercion used to get that consent, etc. hence option B is the correct option.
