Solution

No, I do not agree with this decision [1].

Fourteen years is very young for a girl to marry. In India, the marriageable age of females is 18 years and that of males is 21 years. If a female or male is married before the marriageable age, both the child and mother will be unhealthy and may encounter serious problems. It is also punishable by law. [2]
