Hence, their names were required to be entered in the record of Panchayat concerned. The Court stated that entering the names of the petitioners in the Panchayat Record i.e. would be in consonance with the provisions of Section <a href=\"https:\/\/www.scconline.com\/DocumentLink.aspx?q=JTXT-0001543738\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">16<\/a> of the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.scconline.com\/DocumentLink.aspx?q=JTXT-0002726956\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Hindu Marriage Act, 1955<\/a> (&#8216;HMA&#8217;). The objection of the respondents that since the marriage between the parents of the petitioners could not be registered, so the petitioners&#8217; name could not be entered in the Panchayat Record was clearly misconceived and violated the import of Section 16(1) of the HMA.<\/p>\n<h3>Background<\/h3>\n<p style=\"margin-bottom: 3%;\">The marriage between &#8216;X&#8217; and &#8216;Y&#8217;, i.e. petitioner&#8217;s parents was solemnized on 12-10-2011 and since then, they have been living as husband and wife in the house owned by father of &#8216;X&#8217;. Petitioner&#8217;s father, i.e. &#8216;X&#8217; was earlier married to &#8216;Z&#8217;, who was not keeping good health and suffered from several ailments. Thereafter, with consent of first wife, &#8216;X&#8217; solemnized second marriage with &#8216;Z&#8217;.<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-bottom: 3%;\">The petitioner&#8217;s grievance was that in their repeated endeavours for incorporating their names in Panchayat record i.e. Birth Register and Pariwar Register had not proved fruitful. Thus, the present petition was filed.<\/p>\n<h3>Analysis, Law, and Decision<\/h3>\n<p style=\"margin-bottom: 3%;\">The Court referred to <span style=\"font-style: italic;\">Union of India v. V.R.

The legitimacy of such a child, was matter of public policy so as to protect the child born from null and void marriage suffering the consequences of illegitimacy. Further, the Court noted that in <span style=\"font-style: italic;\">Revanasiddappa v. Mallikarjun<\/span>, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.scconline.com\/Members\/NoteView.aspx?enc=KDIwMjMpIDEwIFNDQyAxJiYmJiY0MCYmJiYmU2VhcmNoUGFnZQ==\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">(2023) 10 SCC 1<\/a>, it was reiterated that children born from void or voidable marriages were conferred legitimacy under Section 16 of the HMA.<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-bottom: 3%;\">The Court observed that in the order passed by the Sub Divisional Officer, Fatehpur, District Kangra on 22-8-2023, it was not disputed that the petitioners were the children born to &#8216;X&#8217; and &#8216;Y&#8217;. In this case, the second marriage was solemnized during subsistence of his first marriage, when her first wife was alive. Further, the Court noted that the first wife of &#8216;X&#8217; clearly stated that she had no objection for recording the names of the petitioners in the Panchayat Record.<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-bottom: 3%;\">The Court stated that the petitioners were living beings and the fact that they were there, needed to be acknowledged in law. Hence, their names were required to be entered in the record of Panchayat concerned. The Court stated that entering the names of the petitioners in the Panchayat Record i.e. would be in consonance with the provisions of Section 16 of the HMA. The objection of the respondents that since the marriage between the parents of the petitioners could not be registered, so the petitioners&#8217; name could not be entered in the Panchayat Record was clearly misconceived and violated the import of Section 16(1) of the HMA.<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-bottom: 3%;\">Thus, the Court directed the respondents to enter the petitioners&#8217; name in the Panchayat record i.e. Birth Register and Pariwar Register within five weeks.<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-bottom: 3%;\">[<span style=\"font-weight: bold; color: #632423;\">Navya v.
