Bhatkallys News Bureau "Government has hidden agenda behind the opposition of the triple talaq issue and the bill would lead to further exploitation of married Muslim women",said Miss Nabira Mohtesham addressing the press conference held here at Rabita Society after attending the programme conducted by Rabita Millat Women's Committee Bhatkal. After speaking on the same issue at the programme where a large number of women attended from across the town, she said that we Muslims are against the bill passed by the government on triple talaq issue and that they all are opposed of any changes that are being brought into the Islamic shariah. She said, this bill has aroused problem not only for man but for a married women too. She then said that Islamic shariah is all complete with perfection and it need not require any changes in it. Speaking about the immediate action plan of the organization she said, "The organization will immediately write emails to the members of Rajya Sabha seeking their intervention in putting a hold on the bill and later will think of what further steps can be taken in this regard". She further added "With triple talaq, atleast things are clear with women that they have been divorced, but according to a recent survey around 24 lakh women in India have been left alone by their husbands without any answers and only around 2 lakh of them are Muslim women, so it is not just Muslim women who are facing these problems but of all religion and communities, so the government should stop showing the fake solidarity with Muslim women for intervening in the Shariah. Answering one of the questions she said, If a person calls his wife says talaq three times all at once, then its not the problem of Islamic shariah but that of the man in question. At the end of the conference, she appealed the Muslims to be firmed with the principles of shahadah. She also requested the media not to insult the Islamic scholars after inviting them to the debate shows and urged the media to focus on the other important problems faced by citizens instead of triple talaq and to pressurize the government for their solution. Along with Miss Nabira, Miss Zarina Kola, Miss Um Hisham, Miss Sabiha Farooq Kowda and other were present in the press conference.
