This Act is considered a significant step toward promoting secularism, as it provides a special form of marriage where the parties are not associated with any Personal Marriage Act. It applies to the entire country and people of any religion.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><b>\u00a0Key Features of The Special Marriage Act, 1954<\/b><\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It applies to all citizens of the country, including Hindus, Muslims, Christians, Sikhs, and Buddhists.
