The state of Bengal in India has made recording of biometrics mandatory for all marriages starting from November 1. Couples and three witnesses are required to provide their fingerprints during the registration process, which is facilitated by marriage registrars equipped with laptops and fingerprint scanners. The new rule currently applies to marriages under the Hindu Marriage Act and the Special Marriage Act, but may be extended to all marriages in the future.
