Triple Talaq: Supreme Court To Pronounce Verdict On Tuesday

.
Regardless of the divisive politics, I hope the SC does the right thing.

This has been lingering for decades now.

Good point.

But the difference is that Sunni are not attacking and killing Shias in India unlike the caste wars among the Hindus.
Incorrect Doc.
In UP - the highest population and the highest number of Muslims, Sunni's have a very rich history of attacking Shia's each year. It is similar in Madhya Pradesh - though not as much as the way it is in UP. BJP has shia vote locked in UP and MP.

Same in Kashmir.

That said, the long term goal of BJP and RSS is Hindu consolidation. And each year in India, as more people get educated and urbanized who don't consider caste as their defining identity(not saying irrelevant, but just not the central one), BJP gains new voters because BJP and Congress have been successful in making Hindus truly afraid of the systemic capture by Muslims.

I don't think SC will give a defining judgement. They might just cop out and say it is upto the GoI to make laws and kick the ball to them. This way they save themselves from this controversial subject.

Stop showing mirror to Indian secular liberals.
They don't like it!

My dad's family, since British times, is based out of Kanpur. With ties to Lucknow as well.

I do not deny what you are saying.

But I disagree with you as with @ranjeet that the BJP can count on the Shia vote.

These are PR gimmicks to sow further sectarian feuds and break up the Muslim vote. Those who know the Indian Muslim community closely will tell you the same.

Also the women. Yes, they will be thankful for the empowerment. But they are not blind nor stupid. They will take their pound of flesh. What happens at the ballots may not be a quid pro quo. Remember, they will remain Muslims. Married to Muslims. Mothers and daughters and sisters of Muslims.

Do the math.

But the same won't hold true for Hindu vote. In spite of the proof staring in the face in last 3 years, I wonder why the same can't be said of Hindu votes?

Anyway, SC barred Triple Talaq for 6 months until govt makes a new law.

Irony in this whole thing is that it is the evil "Jihadi Sanghis" battling for equal rights for woman.
WHILE
The secular liberals want to continue with triple talaq, polygamy and halala.

One more obvious duplicity of Jihadi Seculars exposed..

I think sunni women voting for BJP is a fantasy that will never come to pass. But I have seen a sizeable number of Shias in UP vote for BJP.

Doc, your analysis is shallow. And while making an assessment, we must never let our biases in.
There are two aspects to BJP locking the Shia vote. Not just one.
One is ofcourse that Shias have been victimized by Sunnis in 3 places - UP, MP and Kashmir. (There is more amity between them in other places).

The second is one of the most important - BJP is offering Shia leaders money and power. See under Congress, Sunnis in general monopolized everything that came by way of support to the Government (power, political positions and most importantly money by way of contracts). Congress in particular gave quite a bit to the hardliners(wahabi and deobandis) even in Sunnis. The Shias gained zilch.

Now, BJP is offering them all of that , that which they were denied for decades under Congress. And BJP is not giving a single penny to the Sunnis because they too know that Sunnis will never vote for them.

These two reasons put together is ensuring the Shia vote goes to BJP.

Who told you this? The omnipresent Sangh CD that plays in your head, programming you subliminally?

Cheers, Doc

No need to tell.
The so called EVIL Sanghis are the ones fighting this cause in courts WHILE the Jihadi Seculars are opposing this in public as well as courts.

Anyway, enough exposing you for today.

Coming to SC judgement - Triple Talaq is finished folks.
SC order states that if govt does not come up with a new law, their judgement staying it continues. So, in essence triple Talaq is banned until the time Govt makes a new law.
If it takes 100 years, the ban stays for 100 years.

Well done to EVIL Sanghis for giving woman their rights. This is what true liberalism looks like & not the fake kind promoted by "jihadi Seculars".

You initially said 6 months as a close ended judgment window.

Now you are saying something different.

Can you please post the exact wording here please? Maybe someone from your shakha can oblige.

Didn't know you had comprehension issues?

It's pretty obvious what SC has said. It gave govt 6 months to come up with a new law. In case govt fails to come up with a new law due to delays, their stay on Triple Talaq holds until the time govt comes up with a law.

SC basically is telling the govt that it has 6 months to come up with a new law. If they don't, then the stay continues and the govt will have to explain to people why there is no law in place.

My point (labor I must ...) is that you cannot give someone 6 months, and then in the same ruling also allow them opportunity indefinitely to do something.

The latter nullifies and renders irrelevant then the former.

SC asked the government to legislate a new law within six months. Which means this issue is still alive politically and BJP will keep on milking it while opposition is in a fix whether to openly support the new law or oppose it to continue their minority appeasement.

Edit: now BJP will raise the issue of Halala and polygamy.

But equally it is a sword over the government's head. The ball has essentially been kicked by the Judiciary to the Legislative Executive.

What happens if the Opposition clamors for the government to pass it into Law without delay instead? Without delay or hesitation?
