Hindus seek equality in UK marriage law

Hindus are seeking equality for minority religions/denominations in United Kingdom (UK) marriage law.

GOV.UK website, under ?Religious ceremonies? in ?Marriages and civil partnerships in the UK?, states: ?You don?t usually need to give notice with the register office if you?re getting married in an Anglican church...?

In ?Jewish and Quaker marriages? and ?Non-Anglican Christian marriages and all other religions?: ?You need to give notice with the register office at least 28 days before the ceremony?.

Distinguished religious statesman Rajan Zed, in a statement in Nevada (USA) today, asked: Should not all Britons be treated equally before the law irrespective of their religions/denominations?

Rajan Zed, who is President of Universal Society of Hinduism, pointed out that it was 21st century now where UK was a diverse society comprising of various faith traditions. UK marriage regulations, seemed to be out of step with the times, needed a serious overhaul treating all religions/denominations at equal level.
