Triple Talaq, or instant divorce, allows Muslim men in India to legally divorce their wives by stating the word "talaq" three times, orally, in writing, or electronically. It has been challenged in courts as being discriminatory against women. While some Muslim groups support the practice based on religious tradition, others see it as open to misuse without proper arbitration. The Indian Supreme Court and some high courts have ruled against the practice as unconstitutional and a violation of women's rights.

muslim law
Muslim women have certain rights to maintenance from their husbands under Islamic law. Marriage in Islam is intended to fulfill religious duties as well as for emotional and sexual needs. A wife has a right to interim and permanent maintenance if she refuses her husband access for legal reasons, due to a prenuptial agreement, or if she lives separately due to cruel treatment or non-payment of dowry. This was demonstrated in the 1985 Indian Supreme Court case of Mohd. Ahmed Khan v. Shah Bano Begum, which placed Muslim women's rights to maintenance on equal footing with Hindu women's rights.

Hindu succession act 1956
When a Hindu person dies without a will, the Hindu Succession Act of 1956 determines how their property is distributed.

In the absence of Class I and II heirs, property is distributed to agnates and then cognates, defined as male-line and female-line relatives, respectively. If there are no cognates, the property goes to the government. A Hindu woman's property follows a similar order of inheritance by her children, husband, mother, father, and their heirs.

1) The Triple Talaq Bill aims to criminalize the practice of instant triple talaq among Muslims but the author argues it has a communal agenda of bringing in a Uniform Civil Code.
2) Existing laws like the Protection of Women from Domestic Violence Act 2005 already protect women's rights and there is no need for a separate law only for Muslim women.
3) Imposing criminal liability for uttering talaq thrice is illogical as the Supreme Court has already ruled it does not dissolve the marriage, and it could further marginalize Muslim women.

Islam and the Indian judiciary with reference to Talaq-e-biddat
- Triple talaq allows Muslim men to divorce their wives by pronouncing "talaq" three times, which the author argues violates women's constitutional rights and is not supported by the Quran.
- The Supreme Court banned the practice in 2017, but questions remain about the status of marriages where triple talaq had already been used. The ruling also did not require husbands to take wives back.
- While some see triple talaq as an integral part of Muslim personal law, the author argues that not all religious practices are constitutionally protected, and personal laws should be regulated by the state to prevent gender discrimination. In conclusion, women's rights under the constitution should not be overridden by claims of religious freedom when it comes to

Prototyping presentation
The document discusses the history and regulations around lawyer dress codes. It begins by explaining that the tradition of lawyers wearing black coats and neckties originated in 17th century England when mourning attire was adopted after the death of King Charles II. Wigs were later added, inspired by the French court. The white neckbands date back to English barristers.
Current dress code regulations in India, which were inherited from British rule, require lawyers to wear sober, dignified attire such as a black buttoned coat or open-breasted coat with bands or tie. Black represents authority while white signifies purity. The colors highlight the principle that law is blind to factors other than evidence.

Lifting the Corporate Veil. Power Point Presentation
"Lifting the Corporate Veil" is a legal concept that refers to the judicial act of disregarding the separate legal personality of a corporation or limited liability company (LLC). Normally, a corporation is considered a legal entity separate from its shareholders or members, meaning that the personal assets of shareholders or members are protected from the liabilities of the corporation. However, there are certain situations where courts may decide to "pierce" or "lift" the corporate veil, holding shareholders or members personally liable for the debts or actions of the corporation.
Here are some common scenarios in which courts might lift the corporate veil:
Fraud or Illegality: If shareholders or members use the corporate structure to perpetrate fraud, evade legal obligations, or engage in illegal activities, courts may disregard the corporate entity and hold those individuals personally liable.
Undercapitalization: If a corporation is formed with insufficient capital to conduct its intended business and meet its foreseeable liabilities, and this lack of capitalization results in harm to creditors or other parties, courts may lift the corporate veil to hold shareholders or members liable.
Failure to Observe Corporate Formalities: Corporations and LLCs are required to observe certain formalities, such as holding regular meetings, maintaining separate financial records, and avoiding commingling of personal and corporate assets. If these formalities are not observed and the corporate structure is used as a mere façade, courts may disregard the corporate entity.
Alter Ego: If there is such a unity of interest and ownership between the corporation and its shareholders or members that the separate personalities of the corporation and the individuals no longer exist, courts may treat the corporation as the alter ego of its owners and hold them personally liable.
Group Enterprises: In some cases, where multiple corporations are closely related or form part of a single economic unit, courts may pierce the corporate veil to achieve equity, particularly if one corporation's actions harm creditors or other stakeholders and the corporate structure is being used to shield culpable parties from liability.

Triple talaq

- 3. Kiran Varma - Indianlawinfo 1. About Triple Talaq, also known as talaq-e-biddat, instant divorce and talaq-e- mughallazah (irrevocable divorce),is a form of Islamic divorce which has been used by Muslims in India, especially adherents of Hanafi Sunni Islamic schools of jurisprudence. It allows any Muslim man to legally divorce his wife by stating the word talaq (the Arabic word for "divorce") three times in oral, written, or more recently, electronic form.
- 4. Kiran Varma - Indianlawinfo 2. History ● The practice faced opposition from Muslim women,[28] some of whom filed a public interest litigation in the Supreme Court against the practice, terming it "regressive". The petitioners asked for section 2 of the Muslim Personal Law (Shariat) Application Act, 1937,[A] to be scrapped, describing it as being against Article 14 of the Constitution (equality before law). ● On 13 May 2017, during the hearings before its final judgment, the Supreme Court described instant triple talaq as the "worst form of marriage dissolution". It noted that the custom is banned in the Muslim-majority countries of Saudi Arabia, Morocco, Afghanistan and Pakistan. ● On 8 December 2016, the Allahabad High Court observed in a ruling that the practice of instant triple talaq was unconstitutional and violated the rights of Muslim women.
- 5. Kiran Varma - Indianlawinfo 3. Gender Justice ● Islam considers marriage as a contract and it has laid down procedures on how to annul it. A woman can seek divorce under what is called as "khula", while the husband can end the marriage by pronouncing talaq thrice, after which arbitration is required. ● But activists have highlighted the misuse of instant divorce by men as a reason to ban it. Cases of husbands divorcing their wives through text messages and over phones have come to light. ● According to the findings of a BMMA study, more than 90 percent of 4,710
- 6. Kiran Varma - Indianlawinfo 4. Media Attention ● Critics say divorce and polygamy are not the main issues facing the Muslim community, the majority of whom are close to the bottom of economic and educational indicators in the country. ● The AIMPLB has opposed what it calls government interference in the personal laws of the Muslim community, who form nearly 14 percent of India's 1.3 billion population. ● The Shariat Application Act was passed 10 years before India gained independence from the British colonial power in 1947.
