In India, child marriage has been practiced since ancient times where young children and teenagers are married off much before their physical and mental maturity. There are many reasons why some parents consent to child marriage and some of the reasons could be economic necessity, male protection for their daughters, child bearing, or oppressive traditional values and norms. In this paper I am discussing definition of child marriage, reasons for child marriage, affects of Child marriages on Children, Rules and regulation which regulates the child marriage systems and impact of Child marriage in India   },
