Triple Talaq Bill is a TRAP, says Ali Fazal

Actor Ali Fazal on Sunday said the triple talaq bill passed by the Lok Sabha is a trap. The Lok Sabha on Thursday passed a bill that criminalises the practice of instant divorce with a three-year jail term. The legislation, which has to be cleared by the Rajya Sabha, criminalises instant divorce with three years of imprisonment for Muslim husbands. There is a provision for a subsistence allowance from the husband for the livelihood and daily needs of the wife and the dependent children. The wife will also be entitled to the custody of minor children.
