Two other kinds of talaq still a challenge to gender justice: Chidambaram
New Delhi Aug 23 (IANS) Senior Congress leader P. Chidambaram has said that two other kinds of talaq in the Muslim community were also a challenge to gender justice and equality.
"Greater clarity today. Only instant triple talaq is illegal. Other two kinds are also a challenge to gender justice and gender quality " he said in a tweet.
On Tuesday the Supreme Court struck down the practice of instant triple talaq practised by Muslim men to divorce wives as violative of the Constitution arbitrary and void in law.
