On Thursday, the Supreme Court reserved its order in the triple talaq case.
A five-judge special bench headed by the Chief Justice of India JS Khehar had been constituted to hear the matter, which was done over the past week.
The bench had also said that it would not be ruling on polygamy and nikkah halala as they don’t directly deal with triple talaq. The bench had also specified that if triple talaq is struck down, a new law will be formulated.
