Women groups slam All India Muslim Personal Law Board over triple talaq

ALIGARH: Women’s groups have condemned the propositions put up by the All India Muslim Personal Law Board (AIMPLB) to the Supreme Court in their affidavit justifying triple talaq and polygamy.

Demanding an apology from the board for stating that “Male sex is stronger and female weaker”, Zakia Soman of Bharatiya Muslim Mahila Andolan (BMMA) said, “Their stand that men have greater reasoning power compared to women smacks of a medieval mindset and prejudice against women.”

“Triple talaq is unilateral and arbitrary. Nowhere in the Islamic world is it legal,” said a statement by Noorjehan Niaz of BMMA, Sahba Farooqui and Maimoona Mollah from All India Democratic Women’s Association (AIDWA).
