Some girl 26 yr old,live in INDIA, have done her B.Sc maths, always good in studies, have faced 3 yr GAP in her studies after her graduation because of her MOTHER'S severe sickness for 3 yrs.
Now her father is FORCING her emotionally, to get married as her age of marriage has come.
He has DENIED COMPLETELY TO PAY HER FEES for further studies though HE IS ENOUGH RICH to do that.
He says now he will spend only for her marriage nothing other than that.
BUT she want to do 3yr MCA course before getting married because ....she know she will not be able to study after her marriage as she know her nature that.....she can't study in unfavourable & difficult situations &
SHE DON'T WANT TO RISK HER CARRIER BY GETTING MARRIED BEFORE COMPLETION OF STUDIES.
There is no other financial support for her other than her father.
MY QUESTION IS :::::----------IS THERE ANY LAW ENFORCEMENT TO HELP SUCH 26 YR OLD UNMARRIED GIRL IN LEGAL SYSTEM OF INDIA?

No one can force you to marry. The matrimonial laws in India are very clear regarding this that any consent for marriage taken by force or fraud can be challenged in the court to get annulment of such a marriage. If your father is not prepared to finance your further studies contact any bank that finances students for further studies.

I don't think any country has a law(s) that would compel (force) a parent to financially support a child that has reached the age of adulthood.
If this "girl" will not be able to study once married what makes her think that she would be able to practice a career for what she studied for, after a marriage? Therefore, why waste money on studying at all! If she plans never to wed then she should study her brains out, but to ask her father for financial assistance for these studies with the promise of marrying afterwards is bogus, especially if she said she will not have time to study if married!
No time to study if married equals no time to practice career if married!

I doubt that there is a law in India that would force the father to pay for your studies.As a matter of fact you are going against culture and custom so you would undoubtedly get no help from the legal system.. The only suggestion I have would be to search out a benevolent society that Indira Ganhdi was to have belonged to.This info came 2nd or 3rd hand so don't get your hopes up too high.

Always think positive. For your studies, when you have settled your mind to be self-sufficient first - both academically and financially, YOU MUST GET IN TOUCH WITH A NATIONALISED BANK AND OBTAIN EDUCATION LOAN FROM THEN. No security will be necessary up to 4.00 lacs (possible enhanced to 7.5 lacs) if you study in India, and DO YOUR MCA comfortably from a reputed institution.
As for your father, considering the ground reality that you are growing by your AGE, and after a certain period it MAY be difficult to find a SUITABLE match for you, your father is WORRIED. You should not misunderstand his thinking.
Put forward your sentiment to your father again ( he is your best friend also, I suppose) and tell him that you are interested to build your academic as well as professional career and then only marry. I hope, he will agree.

She must not marry, if she is not ready and does not want to get married.
Reasonably looking at it is her only option.
1. Try and get a scholarship apply for it .
2. She can work as tutor or lecturer's assistant.
3. Try and get part time job.
4. She can think of other ways.
5. She is old enough so father can throw her out of the house.
Fathers usually have best interest of their daughters at heart and on his mind. This is usually based on his life experiences. It is in grain in him he cannot help himself but gentle pleading can do wonders.
So she should do that. She has to write down every thing and take assistant of other members of the family and then find her farther in generous mood and sit down with him and plead her case and the feeling. It may work.

Praapti,
I think the girl should marry in view of age she has already
attained,further studies can be done after marriage and
this should be made clear with the probable groom.Many
girls have successfully done so.Her father seems to be
right to great extent.

Complain to police that your father is harassing/bullying you to marry someone against your wishes.
