The Punjab cabinet on Tuesday approved the ‘Apni Chhat Apna Ghar’, Kisan Card and Sikh Marriage Act.
Chief Minister Maryam Nawaz presided over the provincial cabinet meeting.
The ‘Apni Chhat Apna Ghar’ programme will be launched on Aug 14.
It accorded approval to Punjab Sikh Anand Karaj Marriage Registrar Rules 2024, and Punjab Sikh Anand Karaj Marriage Rules 2024. Minister for Minorities Affairs Ramesh Singh Arora briefed the cabinet that Punjab had become the first province in the world to implement Sikh Marriage Act.
“Even in India, Sikhs have to get their marriages registered under Hindu Act,” he said and added in a few months, the Hindu Marriage Act would also be placed before the cabinet’s approval. Mr Arora said Sikhs from other provinces and countries could come to Punjab for registration of their marriage.
The correct answer to the question: "Which Provincial government approved Sikh Marriage Act and it becomes the first province in the world to do so?" is "Punjab".
