Penal law soon on triple talaq(TH)
Context
A new legislation wrt Triple Talaq is on its way
What has been done?
- A new committee has been set up by the Union Government to frame a new law under which the use of triple talaq or talaq-e-biddat for divorce between Muslim couples would attract punitive measures
SC’s judgement
It should be noted that a SC judgement in August 2017 had made the practice of talaq-e-biddat illegal in India but despite it the practice was going on in some places, hence the need for a new law.
