Any marriage, which takes place in the Catholic Church, is valid. When one wishes to marry, one should contact his local priest; the priest will give instructions to the couple and the non-Catholic must agree to raise the children in the Catholic Faith. If the priest determines that the intentions of the couple are in union with Church teachings, he will permit the marriage. However, if one were to marry outside the Church...the Marriage is not valid.

If a catholic girl marries a Hindu boy in a Hindu ceremony den does d girl no longer be a Catholic?

If she marries a Hindu boy, than definetely she has to live in a Hindu custom or she can live in her own custom subject there is some understanding that need to be shared. Basically she is coming into the boy's house and you don't expect the whole family will have to forgo the Hindu custom. If she marries outside the church, that is, not validated by a catholic priest or deacon, she can still be Catholic. Her marriage may not be recognized, but her being Catholic is fine. She can be married in a Hindu ceremony and still be considered a valid catholic marriage if she gets church approval and takes an oath to raise the children as catholic, which her husband has to witness.

How can a child of a Lutheran and Catholic parent be baptised to make both parents happy?

A person can only be baptized once so baptizing in both churches would be redundant. Generally, when a non-Catholic marries a Catholic they are required to affirm that any children must be raised as Catholics before the Church will allow them to marry. Therefore, if they were married in a Catholic church the children should be baptized in a Catholic church. If the parents were not married in a Catholic church, then they have another problem. They need to regularize their marriage to be in full communion with the Catholic Church. They must arrange to have their marriage blessed by the Catholic Church.
