In India, there is no legal prohibition for a Muslim and a Hindu of different castes to live together. However, such a relationship could face social and family challenges. Ensure you both understand the legal implications and your rights. Legal advice may help if you face any legal or societal hurdles. For further legal assistance contact us on our helpline number.
