The Kailash Marriage Act, which will be formulated in consultation with 74 indigenous judges, is expected to be completed by December 2020. In view of these circumstances, a marriage Act for the Kailash community has been brought into consideration for the very first time. Services of native legal practitioner Advocate Nabig Kailash have been sought to help legalise the soon-to-be-drafted Kailash Marriage Act. According to Wazir Zada, once drafted, the Kailash Marriage Act will be submitted to the Provincial Assembly for approval and legislation through the Department of Minority Affairs. Addressing the Kailash Marriage Act, Khyber Pakhtunkhwa Law Minister Sultan Muhammad Khan said that Civil-religious laws exist everywhere in the world, including the subcontinent.
