यो उत्तर युनिट १ मा छ — पूरै निःशुल्क।

1. From sacrament to contract: marriage as a registered, consensual civil status; divorce from fault-only to fault-plus-consent-plus-breakdown elements;

2. Gender-neutrality: the Code 2074's language and design (both spouses' equal property and family-affairs rights; equal parental standing);

3. The child's-rights revolution: best-interest codified (Children's Act 2075); child-friendly justice (Article 39(8)); child marriage's criminalization strengthened (Criminal Code 2074 — Criminal Law-II, this semester);

6. Decentralization of family justice: the local-level judicial committees (the Constitution's Article 217) — family disputes' first forum at the ward and village/municipal level (Unit 7);

7. The migration dimension: foreign employment and transnational families — foreign divorce recognition (Article 706 of the Civil Code), international child abduction's unresolved gap, the remittance-family's property practice;

8. The incomplete agenda (the exam's critical paragraph): unequal social practice despite equal rules; the dowry and the child-marriage persistence; the property-law implementation gap; the surrogacy statute's absence; the marital-rape and domestic-violence enforcement record — law's text ahead of society's practice, the recurring Nepali theme.
