The Rajasthan High Court has directed the state government to prevent child marriages in the state, stating that village heads and panchayat members will be held accountable if they are solemnized. The order came ahead of the Akshay Tritiya festival on May 10. Despite the Prohibition of Child Marriage Act 2006 being in force, child marriages continue to occur in Rajasthan.
