When the woman asked Khan how he could marry again without giving her divorce, he claimed that she had herself uttered the word talaq three times once when he was beating her.

The entire uproar around the subject of Triple Talaq has improved reporting of such cases in media when earlier they weren’t talked about at all anywhere.

Two petitions, one filed by a religious organisation from Kerala in the Apex court, and another by a lawyer in the Delhi High Court, have challenged criminalisation of Triple Talaq on grounds that it violates the rights of Muslim husbands.

The opposing members don’t want the Muslim Women (Protection of Rights on Marriage) Bill, 2019 to be proposed before wider consultation involving parties from other side of the treasury bench.
