A case has been lodged against an RSS leader in Karnataka for his controversial comments on triple talaq. Prabhakar Bhat Kalladka, the RSS Leader, allegedly stated that while Muslim men are dissatisfied with the BJP government’s bill outlawing triple talaq, Muslim women are content because they now have a “permanent husband.” The remarks were made during an event organized by the Hindu Jagrana Vedike in Srirangapatna. After the comments went viral on social media, a complaint was filed by social worker Nazia Nazeer, resulting in an FIR being registered against Mr. Kalladka under several sections of the Indian Penal Code, including those related to promoting enmity between groups and insulting the modesty of a woman. The Supreme Court had declared the practice of triple talaq unconstitutional in 2017, and the Parliament passed a law banning it in 2019.

RSS Leader Faces Criticism for Triple Talaq Remarks
An RSS leader has come under scrutiny for his recent remarks on the controversial issue of triple talaq. Triple talaq is a practice in some Muslim communities where a husband can divorce his wife by saying the word “talaq” three times. The leader’s comments have sparked outrage and debate, with many arguing that they promote gender inequality and violate women’s rights. Critics are calling for action to be taken against the RSS leader and for a more inclusive and progressive approach to be adopted.
