Triple Talaq Declared Unconstitutional; Shubhangi Atre, Manish Goplani, And More React To SC’s Decision

Check what the TV celebs have to say about SC's decision

As per Supreme Court’s decision on Tuesday, now triple talaq is deemed unconstitutional and hence will finally be striking it down. The bench comprised of five judges of different faiths deliberated for three months before issuing this order. The order comes in response to petitions from seven Muslim women who had been divorced through triple talaq. More than 20 Muslim countries, including neighbouring Pakistan and Bangladesh, have banned the practice. For the uninitiated, a triple talaq is a form of divorce practiced in India, whereby a Muslim man can legally divorce his wife by pronouncing talaq (the Arabic word for divorce) three times. In response to this news, TV celebs have expressed their delight at this major news.
