Lawyers are available now to answer your questions.
Contact the pandit and request him to correct date mentioned in marriage certificate
The certificate should mention that inadvertently date of marriage was mentioned as 31 st march instead of 1st April 2017
On basis of pandit certificate apply to marriage registrar office to correct date of marriage mentioned in marriage certificate
On one day of mistake will not give rise to any criminal case.
So do not worry on that account.
However to correct the mistake do apply before the issuing authority to correct the mistake of dat.
It is permissible and the registrar will issue another certificate with correct date.
Technically this marriage took place on two dates as generally it takes place in night and rituals start from one date and end in another.
Therefore, this is right to say your marriage took place on 31st March. Tell your inlaws that there is no cheating in it as the marriage indeed took place on the said date.
If there is an error in the date of marriage it can be rectified by various methods or by taking appropriate legal steps.
For suggestions to get bail you have not stated the nature of offence for which a FIR has been registered.
Nature of offences are like making of fraud documents and cheating, I want to know that is there any chances of rejection of anticipatory bail in my case, where my wife has no problem about our marriage and even the truth is the marriage has take place just the mistake was of date by only one day. Based on this they filed FIR against me. What should we do to close the case as early as possible ?
1) i have already advised you to get the marriage certifcate rectified by the pandity who performed the marriahe
2)there is no intention to decive
3) it is mistake done by pandit who solemnised the marriage
4)you should be granted anticipatory bail
Have you indulged in such acts as alleged against you and whether they provided any prof for making such wild allegations?
If they are bent upon prosecuting you, let them go ahead, you first obtain AB and then you can challenge their case in the court of law.
