Parties, politicians supporting triple talaq eyeing vote-bank, have no concern for muslim women: Tarun Chugh

Chandigarh, Aug 19 (UNI) Lashing out at parties and politicians supporting triple talaq, the Bhartiya Janata Party on Monday accused these forces of eyeing vote-bank at the cost of Muslim women and children.
In a statement here, BJP national secretary Tarun Chugh said even Islamic countries have done away with the obsolete law which did injustice to Muslim women nearly 56 years ago. “The successive Congress governments however decided to continue with the anti-woman law as part of its appeasement policy,” he said.
Thanking Prime Minister Narendra Modi, Home Minister Amit Shah and Law Minister Ravi Shankar Prasad, the BJP leader said they have paved way for restoration of dignity of Muslim women by bringing in the act against triple talaq. “Even the Quran does not endorse triple talaq,” he said.
