New Delhi: The Supreme Court today harboured that a divorced Muslim woman can aspire to supervision from her husband under Section 125 of the Code of Criminal Procedure, reported in The NDTV World News.
The prominent decision popped up as a bar of Justice BV Nagarathna and Justice Augustine George Masih discharged a Muslim man’s plea questioning a law to deliver supervision to his divorced wife under the CrPC.
“We are hereby dismissing the criminal appeal with the major conclusion that Section 125 would be applicable to all women and not just married women,” Justice Nagarathna claimed.
Justice Nagarathna and Justice Masih offered separate but current judgments.
The judiciary made it obvious that the direction for aspiring supervision involves all married women, despite of their religion.
Supervision, the court claimed, is not charity but the privilege of married women. In emphatic statements, Justice Nagarathna claimed, “Some husbands are not conscious of the fact that the wife, who is a homemaker, is dependent on them emotionally and in other ways. The time has come when the Indian man must recognise a homemaker’s role and sacrifice.”
