PM Modi hails SC verdict

PM Narendra Modi hailed the SC verdict on triple talaq as “historic“ and said it grants equality to Muslim women. He said the judgement will serve as a powerful measure for women empowerment.
The SC by a majority verdict set aside the practice of divorce through triple talaq among Muslims, saying the practice was void, illegal and unconstitutional. “Judgment of the Honble SC on Triple Talaq is historic. It grants equality to Muslim women and is a powerful measure for women empowerment,“ the Modi tweeted.

The PM has been raising the issue of triple talaq as an evil practice and has also been talking of doing away with it at various platforms. The PM was one of the first ones to tweet after the judgment.
