State: Central

Year: 1937

.....as introduced, (now appearing as Cl, 2). We have omitted the definition of Arya Samajists. We were impressed by the difficulty of finding a satisfactory definition, and we consider that the proposal in sub-clause (b) of Cl. 2 that a declaration subsequent to marriage should suffice to establish that the maker of the declaration was an Arya Samajist, was fraught with danger. We are of opinion that the purposes of the Bill will be adequately served if the question of the religious status of the parties to a marriage remains a question of fact to be determined by the circumstances of each case. We have recast clause (3) (now numbered Cl. 2) in a clearer and more comprehensive form. We recognize that some provision must be made to govern succession in respeet of the marriages dealt with by the Bill, but we found that considerable diversity of opinion existed as lo what that provision should be. We decided by a majority that the most suitable solution of the problem is to provide as we have done in clause 3 that questions of succession shall be determined according to the Indian Succession Act, '1925.
