حکومت پنجاب کو ہدایات جاری کی گئی تھیں کہ کالم نمبر 13 میں بھی ترمیم کرکے نقد رقم، منقولہ اور غیر منقولہ جائیداد کی تخصیص کی جائے
High Court issued direction to all the Nikah Registrars to ensure compliance of Rules 7 to 13 of the “Rules, 1961” while recording entries in the Nikahnama. They shall also avoid from incorporating any entry other than allowed in Nikahnama and take special care while making entries in columns No.13 to 16. The Nikah Registrars shall only record the entry of dower in column No.13 whatever is fixed by the parties as dower. We also issue following directions:-
A. The Federal Government and Provincial Government of Punjab are directed to amend column No.13 of the Nikahnama as follows:-
B. Dower:
(i) Amount in cash__________
(ii) Moveable property________
(iv)Immovable property with specification ___ ____________________________________
The Federal as well as Provincial Government are directed to prescribe minimum educational qualification for the grant of licence to the Nikah Registrar in pursuance of Rule 5 (2) of the “Rules, 1961” and make arrangement for their proper training.
C. Till such time the Nikahnama Form prescribed under Rule 8 of the Rules is suitably amended, each case shall be decided on its own facts and circumstances keeping in view intention of the parties as expressed in the Nikahnama.
Needless to observe that if the parties are desirous to fix some other beneficial condition in addition to dower, they should execute an independent instrument to that effect instead of intermingling the same with the dower. If there is some negligence on the part of Nikah Registrars in adhering the above directions, he shall be made liable to be proceeded in accordance with law. Office to circulate this judgment to all concerned.
