You can legally marry under the Special Marriage Act, 1954. To avoid threats or pressure, file a secret application at the Marriage Registrar’s office. Maintain confidentiality, involve police protection if required, and ensure all documents and witnesses are ready. You may also approach legal aid or a lawyer for guidance.
