After a lot of talks and discussions regarding Triple Talaq, the Union Government has finally declared it as a criminal offence.
On the first day of the Winter Session of Parliament, the government cleared the suggested bill and announced the instant triple talaq or talaq-e-biddat a crime.
The proposed law would give power to the victim to approach a magistrate seeking “subsistence allowance” for herself and minor children.
After the new law was announced, it got almost positive response on social media. Twitterati loved and appreciated the decision of government.
Have a look at some of the reactions-

Modi Govt clears the historic bill making the Muslim practice of #TripleTalaq, a non-bailable criminal commence. Big relief for Muslim women who have been getting treated as cattle for centuries.

प्रधानमंत्री श्री @narendramodi का देश की बहनों के लिए तीन तलाक पर कानून एक बड़ा उपहार है। इस कानून से हमारी मुस्लिम बहनों के भविष्य पर अचानक मंडराने वाले काले बादलों से छुटकारा मिलेगा। इसकी राह में आगे आने वाली हर बाधा दूर हो। मेरी शुभकामनाएँ। #TripleTalaq

Well, this one is indeed a welcome decision from the government and really worth appreciating. Now we really hope to see strict laws against more issues prevailing inside our society on the name of culture.
What are your thoughts on it?
