Correct Answer: child marriage


Solution : The correct answer is child marriage.

The Orthodox could not be reconciled as they had been about the Age of Consent Act because the Sharda Act set the minimum age for marriage at fourteen, by which time the majority of girls would have reached puberty. The law was enacted on July 26, 1856. Before the Indian Rebellion of 1857, it was drafted by Lord Dalhousie and approved by Lord Canning.
