'We don’t see couples as Hindu & Muslim': UP conversion law doesn’t bar interfaith union, says Allahabad high court
The Allahabad High Court affirmed that Uttar Pradesh's anti-conversion law does not prohibit interfaith marriages or live-in relationships between consenting adults. The court emphasized that the right to live with a chosen partner, regardless of religion, is fundamental. It stated that individuals cannot be coerced into religious conversion for marriage or cohabitation, upholding constitutional rights against discrimination.
