Breaking News | Pinarayi Vijayan, the chief minister of Kerala, criticised the central government for making triple talaq a crime and questioned why it was only a crime for Muslims when divorce in all other religions was regarded a civil matter. “People from different religious backgrounds might have come here for the conference. Can we use a different mode of punishment for each person? For a person following a certain religion, there's one law and for another, there is another law. Isn't this what we are seeing in the case of the triple talaq?” he asked. “The triple talaq was criminalised. Divorce happens in all religions. All others are seen as civil cases. Why is it a criminal offence for Muslims alone? So, in the case of a divorce, if it's a Muslim, then he can be jailed. We are all Indians. Can we say that we got our citizenship because we were born in a particular religion? Has religion ever been the basis for citizenship?” he added.
