It's a great day for women's empowerment no doubt, that this abominable practice of instant triple-talaq among the Muslim community has been consigned to the dustbin of history. In every community in India, religion must be separated from the basic human rights of both men and women. The BJP and its supporters should not be gloating too much, and should not be falling over themselves in giving all the credit to prime minister Modi for this historic Supreme Court judgment. In a true sense, this is a victory for all those Muslim women who took this issue to court, and over the years, tenaciously pursued this to its logical conclusion. The genuine paradigm shift will only come about when India has a common and uniform civil code across all religion.
