3) Divorced persons when may marry again

            Section 15 of the Hindu Marriage Act 1955 says that when a marriage has been dissolved by a decree of divorce and either there is no right of appeal against the decree or, if there is such a right of appeal, the time for appealing has expired without an appeal having been presented, or an appeal has been presented but has been dismissed, it shall be lawful for either party to the marriage to marry again.

     Before 1976 there was a provision to Section 15 under that provision for proviso after a divorce decree the parties concerned had to wait for 1 year before entering into another marriage.

Then within a month, the husband remarried another woman. The divorced wife filed a special leave petition in the Supreme Court under Section 136 of the Indian Constitution.

  1. Hi everyone, I am Sharon. from Poland I want to use this medium to appreciate Dr Ogbeifun the great black magic death spells caster for the successful death spells he cast on someone for me. I contacted him when my husband left me for another woman who uses witchcraft power to take my husband. I was desperately in need of help when I found his contacts online about his genuine powers. I told him my situation and how I wanted the bitch who took my husband gone. He told me not to worry. He cast the death spells ritual on her and the bitch died in her sleep within 24hours. Now my husband is back home and we are living happily. Thank you so much Dr Ogbeifun, You are so real and true. Below is his contacts in case you want to contacts him
