he government is considering mandatory marriage registration as partof a new law recognising the rights of HIV/AIDS patients in India।The Health Ministry has proposed that registration should be mandatorybut conducting an HIV test should be voluntary. The clause is aimed atensuring that women know if their prospective grooms are infected, anofficial said. The Women and Child Development Ministry had said lastweek that many women with HIV/AIDS get the disease from their husbandsand are not aware of their medical condition at the time of marriage.
