Re: Triple Talaq
"Despite the Supreme Court having declared the practice void in August last year, activists on the ground confirm that it continues unabated. Last week the lower house of the parliament passed a bill seeking to criminalise instant "triple talaq". If the bill is voted into a law, men found guilty of divorcing their wives through "triple talaq" could face jail time of up to three years."
