Muslim women stage protest to withdraw Triple Talaq Bill

Muslim women here took out a silent protest march against the instant Triple Talaq Bill.
The women took out the march from Chardarwaja to Muslim Musafirkhana where a public meeting was held today.
The office bearers of All India Muslim personal law board (AIMPLB) demanded withdrawal of the bill saying it was a defective bill and will lead to destruction of families and will only increase the sufferings of the women.
Addressing the women at the meeting, the AIMPB secretary Mohammad Fazlur Raheen Mujaddedi said that the government will have to withdraw the bill, which, he alleged, was against the Constitution and against the interest of Muslim women.

After the protest march and public meeting, a delegation of Muslim women handed over a representation, addressed to Governor Kalyan Singh at Rajbhawan here.
In the representation, Yasmeen Farouqi, the board member said the bill was drafted without any consultation with top religious scholar and intellectuals of the community.
We reject the bill and appeal to take it back as it is against the Constitution of India, women's rights and gender justice, she said.
