Women's right over 'rights' of customs

By Economic Times - 2 months ago
The Supreme Court's recent ruling has brought clarity after decades of uncertainty regarding the rights of illegally divorced Muslim women. The court declared that all Muslim women, including those divorced through triple talaq, have the right to seek maintenance under secular laws, rejecting any discrimination as regressive. This decision aligns with earlier judicial directions emphasizing gender justice and equality. It underscores the supremacy of religion-neutral legal provisions, aiming to prevent discrimination based on personal or religious laws and uphold citizens' rights over primordial identities.
