A: The Evolving Dynamics of Marriage in Modern India:
Diminishing Value Perspectives:
Changing Norms:
Societal acceptance of diverse relationships has diminished the emphasis on traditional marriage, with a notable rise in the 'never married' youth population to 26.1% in 2019.
Individual Autonomy:
Increasing personal freedom has led to autonomous choices in partnerships, challenging arranged marriages through the adoption of Live-in relationships and the embrace of single lifestyles.
Rising Divorce:
Escalating divorce rates indicate a decline in the perceived sanctity and permanence of marriage.
Economic Independence:
The call for women's empowerment has expanded choices beyond traditional marriage, challenging patriarchal norms and diminishing the perceived sanctity of marriage.
Supporting Value Perspectives:
Social Stability:
Marriage continues to play a crucial role in providing a structured framework for family life, contributing to social stability.
Legal Protections:
Marriage offers essential legal rights in inheritance, property, and medical decisions.
Religious Significance:
For many, marriage is viewed as sacred, with strong ties to their religion, instilling moral values.
Psychological Security:
Marriage is seen as a SOURCE of psychological security, reducing isolation and addressing mental health challenges.
In Conclusion:
While marriage undergoes adaptations to meet modern needs, it remains a significant institution in contemporary India, fulfilling evolving societal aspirations.
