    Digital Desk: The government stated on Monday that playing songs at weddings does not violate copyright law and that no individual can charge a royalty for such activities.

    The Department for Promotion, Industry, and Internal Trade (DPIIT) stated in a public notice that it has received several complaints and grievances from the general public and other stakeholders regarding the alleged collection of royalties by Copyright Societies for staging musicals at weddings in violation of the letter and spirit of Section 52 (1) (za) of the Copyright Act 1957.

    Section 52 of the legislation addresses conduct that does not infringe on copyright. It also states that religious ceremonies include a marriage procession and other social events linked with marriage.
