Valsad Parsi Anjuman Trust

The Supreme Court on Thursday asked the Parsi Anjuman in Gujarat's Valsad to consider the plea of woman from the community - who has married outside the religion - seeking to attend the funeral of her father as and when he passes away.

The Supreme Court in August will analyse whether a Parsi woman after marriage deemed to take the religion of her husband would cease to be a Parsi. The top court will also examine if a Parsi woman can be deprived of her religious identity and rights after marrying a man of different religion.
