<h1>Section 219: Only Aggrieved Parties Can File Marriage Offence Complaints; Exceptions for Minors, Mental Disabilities, and Military Spouses.</h1> Section 219 of the Bharatiya Nagarik Suraksha Sanhita, 2023, outlines conditions for prosecuting offences against marriage under the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita, 2023. It mandates that only the aggrieved party can file a complaint, with exceptions allowing others to do so on behalf of minors, individuals with mental disabilities, or women unable to appear publicly. If the aggrieved is a husband in military service, a designated person may file with written authorization. Complaints on behalf of wives can be made by close relatives. The section also addresses procedural requirements for guardians and authorizations, and sets a one-year limitation for certain offences involving minors.
