Quote
The birth of the 21st century unleashed the onslaught of neo-liberal economic policies and the religious fundamentalist insurgence changed our concept of nation, nationalism, and politics. The Hindutva politics of cultural nationalism and its violent disposition toward indigenous and minority sections in this country provoked us to ask “Who sings the nation?” (Spivak) and “Whose imagined community?” (Partha Chatterjee). The issues such as the Babri Masjid case, Muthalaq case, Uniform Civil Code, the CAA, anti-conversion laws, and attacks on Dalit/Tribal Christians so and so forth have unveiled the wretched status of minorities in this country. Realizing that Muslims are hard to nationalize/ Hinduise, Christians are now targeted to be integrated into the pan-Indian Hindu cultural identity. Recently, some of the church leaders are satiated through frequent visits and political offers by the communal forces, and of course, few of them have already preyed on it due to the issues connected with foreign funds or any other personal issues of corruption. However, Christians should not forget the ideological position of Hindutva as it renders Christians, Muslims, and Communists internal threats to the Indian Nation.

Triple Talaq why not in Pak,Egypt?- PM Modi
Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Tuesday (June 27) reacted to the Uniform Civil Code (UCC) and the opposition meeting for the first time. PM Modi had come to participate in the 'Mera booth, strongest' program organized in Bhopal, Madhya Pradesh. Here he spoke on many issues while addressing the BJP workers. During this, BJP National President JP Nadda and Chief Minister Shivraj Singh Chouhan were present with him. Let us tell you the big things of PM's address. >PM Modi said that the land of Madhya Pradesh has played a big role in making BJP the biggest political party. Today I have got the opportunity to flag off 5 Vande Bharat trains connecting 6 states of the country. I congratulate the people of Madhya Pradesh, Jharkhand, Bihar, Karnataka, Goa and Maharashtra for the connectivity of this modern Vande Bharat train.
>He said that the biggest strength of BJP is all of you workers. You are not only BJP, you are not only a party, you are also strong soldiers for the accomplishment of the country's resolutions. For every worker of BJP, the interest of the country is paramount, the country is bigger than the party. On the completion of 9 years of the central government, information about the programs being organized across the country and the hard work you people (workers) are doing in it is continuously reaching me. Even when I was in America and Egypt, I used to get continuous information about your efforts. It is more pleasant for me to meet you people after returning from there, it is enjoyable. >The PM said that today I am addressing 10 lakh workers working at the booth together. Perhaps in the history of any political party, such a big programme would never have been organized at the grass root level in a systematic way, as big as it is happening here today. Hunger in the heart of the worker to do extra work. This is a great power. India will develope only when the villagea will develope. For this, even small efforts can show a big impact like- how to make our village green, how to increase solar, how to inculcate the habit of solar energy. How to receive help from banks. >The Prime Minister said that BJP workers should think that no child will drop out in my booth. Be it son or daughter, everyone will be cent percent educated. This service will also take place and BJP's work will also be completed. BJP workers are not one of those who sit in aircondition rooms and run parties and issue fatwas. We are the people who go from village to village and spend ourselves among the public in every weather and every situation. He said that the major strength of BJP is all of you workers. > You are not only BJP, you are not only a party, you are also strong soldiers for the accomplishment of the country's resolutions. For every member of BJP, the interest of the country is supreme, the country is bigger than the party. On the completion of 9 years of the central government, information about the programs being organized across the country and the hard work you people (workers) are doing in it is continuously reaching me. Even when I was in America and Egypt, I used to get continuous information about your hard work. It is more pleasing for me to meet you people after come back from there, it is pleasant. >The PM said that today I am addressing 10 lakh workers working at the booth together. Perhaps in the history of any political party, such a big programme would never have been organized at the grass root level in a systematic way, as big as it is happening here today. Hunger in the heart of the worker to do extra work. This is a great power. India will develope only when the villagea will develope. For this, even small efforts can show a big impact like- how to make our village green, how to increase solar, how to inculcate the habit of solar energy. How to receive help from banks. >The Prime Minister said that BJP workers should think that no child will drop out in my booth. Be it son or daughter, everyone will be cent percent educated. This service will also take place and BJP's work will also be completed. BJP workers are not one of those who sit in aircondition rooms and run parties and issue fatwas. We are the people who go from village to village and spend ourselves among the public in every weather and every situation. >The PM said that some people survive only for their own party, want to do fine to the party and they do all this because of sharing of corruption, commission, cut money. The path he has chosen does not require much effort and this is the path of appeasement. On one hand, there are such people who make small clans stand against others for their selfishness by doing appeasement and on the other hand we are the people of BJP. Our rites are different, our resolutions are big and our priority is the country before the party. >On the issue of triple talaq, he said that whoever talks in favor of triple talaq, whoever advocates it. Those people who are hungry for vote not doing justice to Muslim daughters. Triple talaq does not only do injustice to the daughters, the entire family gets destroyed. If triple talaq is an essential part of Islam, then why was it banned in countries like Pakistan, Qatar, Jordan, Indonesia. The Muslim brothers and sisters of India have to know that which political parties are taking political benefit of them by provoking them. >Referring to the UCC, the PM said that we are seeing that work is being done to inflame such people in the name of Uniform Civil Code. If there is one law for one member in a house and another for the other, will the house be able to run? So how will the country be able to run with such a dual system? How can the country run on 02 laws? Even in the Constitution of India, it has been said about equal rights of the citizens. The Supreme Court has again and again said to bring Uniform Civil Code, but these people are starving for vote bank. Those who do vote bank politics have exploited Pasmanda Muslims, but they were never discussed. Even today they do not get equal rights. >On the meeting of the opposition parties, the PM said that the parties which are fiercely opposed to the BJP. Be it 2014 or 2019, in both the elections, there was not as much panic as it is seen today. Those whom some people used to call their enemies earlier, used to abuse after drinking water, today they are prostrating in front of them. His restlessness shows that the people of the country have made up their mind to bring back the BJP in the 2024 elections. Once again in 2024, a landslide victory of the BJP is certain, that is why all the opposition parties are in a panic. >The PM said that nowadays a new word is becoming very popular – that word is guarantee, it is the guarantee of something of the opposition party. . This is a guarantee of corruption, of scams worth lakhs of crores. A few days ago, a 'photo op' program was organized by them, if they put together their total, then all of them together are a guarantee of a scam of Rs 20 lakh crore. Congress alone has a scam value of lakhs crores. >Targeting the opposition parties, the PM said that today I also want to give a guarantee. If they (Opposition) have a guarantee of scam, then Modi also has a guarantee and I have a guarantee – guarantee of action against every scammer. Action is guaranteed on every thief-robber, who has looted the poor, looted the country, his account will always be settled. Today, when the bars of the jail are visible in front, then this jugalbandi of them is happening. Read the full article

The present Criminal Appeal challenges the order passed by the Telangana High Court, upholding the interim maintenance order passed by the Family Court in favor of the Respondent-Wife, however, the amount of interim maintenance was reduced.
Mohd. Abdul Samad v. The State of Telangana
Crl Appeal 2842 of 2024
Before the Supreme Court of India
Heard by Hon'ble Madam Justice B V Nagarathna J and Hon'ble Mr. Justice Augustine George Masih J
Fact
The Appellant is the husband of Respondent No. 02, who entered into a matrimonial alliance with her on November 15, 2012. However, as their relationship deteriorated, Respondent No. 02 left the matrimonial home on April 9, 2016. Subsequently, Respondent No. 02 initiated criminal proceedings against the appellant by lodging an FIR in 2017 for offenses punishable under Sections 498A and 406 of the IPC.
In response, the appellant (husband) pronounced a triple talaq on September 25, 2017, and sought a declaration of divorce from the office of Quzath, which was eventually granted ex parte in September 2017.
The appellant attempted to send INR 15,000 as maintenance for the iddat (three months) period, which Respondent No. 02 refused to accept. Instead, she moved a petition for interim maintenance under Section 125(1) of the CrPC before the Family Court, which was consequently allowed in June 2023.
Legal Issue
Does the Muslim Women (Protection of Rights on Divorce) Act, 1986 take precedence over the General Law?
Points of Argument
Appellant’s argument
The Muslim Women (Protection of Rights on Divorce) Act, 1986 is a special law providing more comprehensive benefits than Section 125 CrPC, including provisions for mehr, dower, and return of property.
The Act, is a complete code, and it overrides Section 125 CrPC, since it includes lifelong maintenance provisions for divorced Muslim women.
It was also argued that special laws generally prevail over general laws, thus the Act should take precedence.
Sections 3 and 4 of the 1986 Act, empowers First Class Magistrates to decide matters of Maher (mandatory gift that the husband gives to his wife at the wedding) and subsistence allowances.
The family courts lack jurisdiction as the Act mandates Magistrates to handle these issues.
The Respondent-wife didn't file an affidavit opting for CrPC provisions over the 1986 Act, as required by Section 5 of the Muslim Women Act, 1986.
The 1986 Act implicitly repealed Section 125 CrPC for Muslim women due to its specific provisions, thus barring them from seeking relief under Section 125 CrPC.
Argument by Amicus Curaie for the Respondent Wife
The 1986 Act only codifies Muslim personal law and does not negate the reliefs available under Section 125 CrPC.
He emphasized that the purpose of Section 125 is to provide quick relief to deserted or neglected women, irrespective of their religion.
Courts Observation
The Muslim Women (Protection of Rights on Divorce) Act 1986 does not bar the applicability of Section 125 CrPC, granting Muslim women the option to seek maintenance under either provision.
Order
The Criminal Appeal was dismissed. In their separate but concurring judgments, the Hon'ble Madam Justice B V Nagarathna J and Hon’ble Mr. Justice Augustine George Masih J have provided clear conclusions regarding the application of Section 125 CrPC and the Muslim Women (Protection of Rights on Divorce) Act, 1986 as well. A Muslim woman can choose both or either.

What is Divorce under Indian law?
Divorce in Indian Law is the legal termination of marriage, regulated by statutes like the Hindu Marriage Act, Muslim Personal Law, and Special Marriage Act. It involves dissolving marital ties, addressing issues like custody and asset division through court proceedings, and allowing individuals to remarry afterward.
Types of Divorces
Mutual Consent Divorce : Both Spouses agree to end the marriage and settle terms mutually.
Consented Divorce : One spouse seeks Divorce without the consent of the other, often based on grounds such as cruelty, adultery, or desertion.
Void and voidable Marriages : Void Marriages are considered invalid from the start. In contrast, voidable marriages are initially valid but can be annulled under specific circumstances such as fraud, impotence, or mental capacity.
Divorce Process in Chennai
The divorce process in Chennai follows the legal procedures outlined in the Hindu Marriage Act, 1955, or the Special Marriage Act, 1954, depending on the Religion under which the marriage was solemnized. A general overview of the divorce process is listed below.
Consultation with a Lawyer
The first step is to consult with a divorce lawyer who can guide you through the process and provide legal advice based on your specific situation.
Grounds of Divorce
In India, there are several grounds on which a divorce can be sought, including adultery, cruelty, desertion, conversion to another religion, mental illness, and incurable diseases. You will need to establish one of these grounds to file for Divorce.
Filing a Petition
The next step is to file a divorce petition in the appropriate family court in Chennai. The petition should include details such as the grounds of Divorce, details of the marriage, and any other relevant information.
Service of Summons
After filing the petition, the court will issue a summons to the other party, informing them about the divorce proceedings and giving them an opportunity to respond.
Meditation/ Counseling
In some cases, the court refers the parties to mediation or counseling to try to reconcile their differences and settle the Divorce amicably.
Evidence and Arguments
During the court hearings, both parties will have the opportunity to present evidence and arguments in support of their case.
Judgments
After considering all the evidence and arguments presented, the court will issue a judgment granting or denying the Divorce.
Appeal
If either party is dissatisfied with the judgment, they have the right to appeal to a higher court within a specified time frame.
Final Decree
Once the judgment becomes final, the court issues a decree of Divorce, officially ending the marriage.
Indian Laws for Divorce based on the Religion
In India, divorce laws vary depending on the parties' Religion. Here is an overview of divorce laws for the major religions practiced in India.
Hindu Marriage Act, 1955
The Hindu Marriage Act governs divorce proceedings for Hindus, Buddhists, Sikhs, and Jains. It provides various grounds for Divorce, including adultery, cruelty, desertion, conversion to another religion, mental illness, and incurable diseases.
Both Husband and Wife can file for Divorce under this act.
Muslim Personal Law
Muslim divorce laws are governed by the Muslim Personal Law (Shariat) Application Act of 1937.
The husband can initiate Divorce Muslims through various methods, including Talaq (Divorce by husband's declaration), Khula (Divorce initiated by the wife), and Mubarak (mutual Divorce).
Triple talaq, a practice where a husband can divorce his wife by pronouncing "Talaq" three times in a single sitting, was declared unconstitutional by the Supreme Court of India in 2017.
Christian Divorce Laws
Christian divorce laws are primarily based on the Indian Divorce Act of 1869.
Grounds for Divorce under this act include adultery, cruelty, and desertion for two years or more.
Both husband and wife can file for Divorce under this act.
Parsi Marriage and Divorce Act, 1936
The Parsi Marriage and Divorce Act governs divorce laws for Parsis (Zoroastrians).
Grounds for Divorce include adultery, cruelty, desertion, conversion to another religion, and insanity.
Both husband and wife can file for Divorce under this act.
Special Marriage Act, 1954
The Special Marriage Act applies to marriages where either or both parties are not governed by their laws or where the marriage is between individuals of different religions.
Divorce under this act can be sought on grounds similar to those under the Hindu Marriage Act.
Both husband and wife can file for Divorce under this act.
Grounds for Divorce
Desertion
Desertion, as a ground for Divorce, refers to one spouse abandoning the other without consent and reasonable cause for a continuous period.
Cruelty
Cruelty, as a ground for Divorce, refers to any behavior by one spouse that causes mental or physical suffering, making it unbearable for the other spouse to continue living together.

Venereal disease, as a ground for Divorce, refers to the transmission of an infectious sexually transmitted disease from one spouse to the other after marriage.
Conversion

Presumption of Death
Presumption of death, as a ground for Divorce, arises when one spouse is not heard alive for seven years or more.
Mental Disorder

Judicial Divorce is the legal termination of a marriage by a court, typically involving legal proceedings to resolve issues such as custody and property division.
Two years separation
Legal grounds for Divorce in some jurisdictions where spouses can divorce if they've lived apart for a continuous period, often two years.
Child Custody and Support
Child Custody and support arrangements in India are primarily governed by the Guardians' Wards Act of 1890 and the personal laws applicable to the parties involved.
Child Custody
The welfare of the child is the primary consideration in determining custody arrangements.
Under Hindu law, custody of children below the age of five is usually granted to the mother, and custody of older children is decided based on their best interests.
In Muslim law, custody of minor children is generally awarded to the mother until a certain age (7 years for boys and puberty for girls), after which the father may be granted custody.
In cases of interfaith marriage or marriages under the Special Marriage Act, custody is decided based on the child's best interests, considering factors such as the child's age, health, and education needs.
Child Support
Both parents are legally obligated to support their children financially.
The amount of child support is determined based on factors such as the parents' financial capacity and the child's needs.
Child support may cover expenses such as education, healthcare, and general maintenance.
Depending on the circumstances of the cases, the court may order periodic payments or a lump-sum amount as child support.
Failure to provide child support can result in legal consequences, including enforcement measures by the court.
Division of Assets and Alimony
In India, the division of assets and payment of alimony (maintenance) upon Divorce is governed by various personal laws and the provisions of the Indian legal system.
Division of Assets
Upon Divorce, the assets acquired during the marriage are typically divided between the spouses.
Assets may include property, bank accounts, investments, vehicles, and any other jointly owned assets.
The division of assets is usually based on principles of fairness and equity, considering factors such as the financial contributions of each spouse, their respective needs, and the welfare of any children involved.
Specific laws and procedures governing the division of assets may vary depending on the personal laws applicable to the parties involved.
Alimony (Maintenance)
Alimony, also known as maintenance, is financial support provided by one spouse to the other after Divorce.
Alimony ensures that the financially disadvantaged spouse can maintain a reasonable standard of living after the Divorce.
The amount of alimony and the duration of payments are determined based on factors such as the income and financial resources of each spouse, their respective earning capacities, the duration of the marriage, and the standard of living during the marriage.
Alimony may be awarded as a one-time lump-sum payment or periodic payments over a specified period.
The laws governing alimony vary depending on the personal laws applicable to the parties.
New Divorce Rules in 2024
