Men can divorce their wives over message apps, over the phone and with letters
Five Muslim women in India have filed complaints over instant divorce saying it violates their fundamental right to equality under the Indian Constitution.
According to the Indian Constitution, citizens have the right to “equality before the law” and any “discrimination on grounds of religion, race, caste and sex” is prohibited.
However, India is also a secular country and Indians have “the right to freely profess, practice and propagate religion” allowing every religious denomination the right “to manage its own affairs in matters of religion.”

The Supreme Court is expected to issue a ruling on the matter within the next few weeks.
