A.Hi,
Under Muslim personal law, women above the age of 15 who have attained puberty are eligible to be marry. However, this is in contravention of the Prohibition of Child Marriage Act(PCMA) 2006. The Courts have also given conflicting opinions in this regard.
The marriage can be annulled on the grounds that the girl was a minor at the time of marriage. You will need to collect all the necessary documents, show proof that you have lived in the state of filing for the past 90 days and make the petition at the local Family Court, stating the reasons for annulment.
