New Conditions of Nikkah in Punjab




" saadi waari aai tae kugoo roo piya"



When it's our turn , everything has gone wrong :-)


It is in the news that Punjab government has made eight amendments to the Nikka nama law. Some important amendments are as follows:



1- It has made necessary for both bride and bridegroom to undergo medical check up.

2- It is compulsory to enter correct date of brith in the nikkah form. Date of birth should be matched with birth certificate or with the school certificate.

3- Photos of both bride and bridegroom must be on Nikkah form.

4- It is also mandatory for parents/guardians of both bride and bridegroom to sign the nikkah nama document as witnesses.



I wonder whether it is compulsory to fill all the columns of Nikkah form or not. Why Punjab government has not made it compulsary to not to leave any single 'shiq' of Nikkah nama???



In our conservative society it seems so difficult to go for a medical check up especially for marriage :-/ How the brides of remote areas of Punjab will go through these processes? I know many of you must be having smile on thier faces on my 'absurd' thinking but the set up that I have seen in our rural society will not digest this amendment so easily.



And , there would be a photo session before marriage to get fresh photos for Nikkah form :-) So, bride and bridegroom need to go to beauty parlour twice otherwise Maulvi sahib will get confused :-D ( Dulha jee ki baari tu baa'd main aaye gi )



Last but not least , what is the fate of Heerz and Ranjha'z of Punjab. Muhabbat Punjab main parwan charhey gii aur Nikkah Khyber Pakhtunkhawa main hahahhaha..... ;-) Aur PK government kay liye pehlay Punjabi Taliban they ub Punjabi aashiqan ;-)
