The Supreme Court will today hear 4 PILS against polygamy and nikah-halala being practised in Islam. A 3 judge bench of Chief Justice Dipak Misra and Justices A.M. Kanwilkar and D.Y Chandrachud will hear the petitions filed by Sameena Begum of Delhi, BJP leader and social activist Ashiwini Kumar Upadhyaya and two others urging the apex court to declare both the practices as the violation of fundamental rights. The apex court is to take up this issue after triple talaq was banned last year. The petitioner Sabeena Begum said she was a victim of polygamy and was filing the petition to highlight the plight of thousands of Muslim women across the country suffering due to the draconian practices of Polygamy and Nikah Halala.
