(Protection of Rights on Marriage) Bill, 2017. The bill makes instant

triple talaq (talaq-e-biddat) in any form — spoken, in writing or by
electronic means such as email, SMS and WhatsApp illegal and void,

with up to three years in jail for the husband. The bill was tabled by the

law minister and saw as many as 19 amendment motions which were all
rejected. Several political parties opposed the Bill in Parliament,

labelling it “Faulty”.
