The government, who had listed the contentious triple talaq bill for consideration, tabled the bill in Rajya Sabha on Tuesday. While introducing the bill, Union Minister Ravi Shankar Prasad said: "this is a matter of gender justice, dignity and equality."
The bill has already been passed by the Lok Sabha by a voice vote amidst a walkout by Congress, Samajwadi Party, Trinamool Congress, DMK and others. The bill was passed by the 16th Lok Sabha but could not pass the Rajya Sabha hurdle.
