A says in a conversation to B that he will give 10,000 $ to
such person who marries his daughter. C marries A's
daughter and files a suit claiming the amount of 10,000 $.
Will C succeed in the suit so filed?

Answer Posted / ashwani kumar upadhyay

a valid contract is only created by the offer and its
ecceptance. For an offer it is necessary to give it to the
person to recieve his essent thereto. The offer is a mean
to obtain the willingness of the offeree to do or abstain
from doing something {sec 2(a)Indian Contract Act,1872}.
The offer must be given to the person directly and the
nessecity of ontaning the assent of offeree must be there.
in this problem A only expressed his wish to give rs 10000
to such person who marries his daughter and he has not
offerred to C. therefore there is no contract arises
between A and C and he is not entitled to claim the money
from A.
