Evidently, a twelve-year old is old enough to marry, but if she wants a divorce, her age is a legal hurdle.
Legal experts have told the family that since Susheela is a minor, she will have to wait till she attains the age of 18 years to get her divorce in a court of law. Thus the community panchayat has been called to decide on her future.
