Responding to a question from when the decision would take effect, the adviser said, "I have signed document in this regard today. You can get married without tax."
âThe marriage registration form used to mention âmarriedâ or âvirginâ. This is a disrespectful word for a girl. We have replaced that word with unmarried,â he added.
The adviser said they have done many such small things. âI have plans to do many more things."
