Triple Talaq: All India Muslim Women Personal Law Board criticises AIMPLB signature drive
All India Muslim Women Personal Law Board Said That AIMPLB Was Trying To Mislead Muslim Women Through Its Signature Campaign On Triple Talaq.
Amidst intensification of the debate over ‘triple talaq’, All India Muslim Women Personal Law Board (AIMWPLB) slammed the signature campaign launched by AIMPLB on Sunday, terming it as a move to "mislead" women from the community.
"The campaign is not to empower Muslim women but to mislead them," AIMWPLB President Shaista Amber told PTI.
Her comments came days after the All India Muslim Personal Law Board carried out a signature campaign against Centre's affidavit in the Supreme Court against 'triple talaq' and the questionnaire prepared by the Law Commission regarding Uniform Civil Code.
She said it would have been better had the AIMPLB written in its documents that it wholeheartedly supported the provisions in the Holy Quran about 'triple talaq'.

AIMPLB could also punish those who utter 'talaq' thrice in one go, she suggested. Amber said the affidavit before the apex court smacked of votebank politics and efforts to disintegrate the society.
"On the pretext of the issue, the government was trying to push the agenda implementing Uniform Civil Code," she said. Implementation of a common code is part of the BJP's election manifesto.
