‘Triple Talaq’ Banned

Triple Talaq has been a highly controversial practice in India. It's where a Muslim man can instantly end his marriage, by simply saying divorce in Arabic three times. Many have argued the tradition is easily open to misuse, with reports some men have legally abandoned their wives after a simple email, or even a Whatsapp message. But trying it now could land you in jail. For years, many have fought to outlaw the practice, arguing it leaves women vulnerable. So, why are so many sceptical about the government's motives?
