What are consequences of child marriage for government jobs?

Is there any law in India that prevents people who married before the legal age from getting government jobs? I got married in 2006 when I was 19 and my wife was 16. I have now been selected for a government job.

Child marriages are legally invalid in India. However, if a government job has been secured despite this, it's essential to consult with a legal expert to understand any potential implications and ensure compliance with employment regulations.
