Instant Triple Talaq or talaq-e-bidat has been banned in India since 19th September 2018. The Indian Parliament passed the bill on 30th July 2018. This act has been politically controversial with stark and unrelenting opposition from eminent political moguls.
Triple Talaq is a custom of divorce unique to the Islamic community. However, Triple Talaq is uncommon in practice but ubiquitous in essence, across religions. In the talaq-e-bidat, a man is provided with the power to divorce his wife instantaneously by saying Talaq thrice. For centuries, this practice has plagued women with innumerable problems with no respite for them.
Providentially, the Indian government was able to pass the Triple Talaq Bill (by popular terminology). Citing their aspirations for women empowerment and gender equality, The BJP government chanced the Triple Talaq Bill.
The Triple Talaq Bill paves the way for the Uniform Civil Code and other such liberal customs and laws in which democracy is founded. The Triple Talaq Bill carries the message of hope for those oppressed by the talaq-e-bidat. However, as it is not a retroactive law, citizens previously affected by the same cannot avail the benefits of this legislation. Even so, the Triple Talaq Bill supplies sanctity to the Indian Constitution's clauses and articles.
GlobeIsOne feels great pleasure and relief upon the enactment of the concerning law. The author is of the opinion that the Triple Talaq Bill shall provide a governmental shield, defending women from this degenerating custom. With the execution of this act, parity between the genders shall rise. The author hopes to see similar legislation upon the abandonment of women without prior notice. In the odour of Triple Talaq shall the fragrance of the new bill float, progressing further with every second.
