The Supreme Court’s judgment is no doubt a landmark in the history of Muslim women’s struggle for gender justice. Not that the verdict does enough to address the broader issue of gender justice, but it’s one step forward. However, I am concerned with the politics around Muslim women’s rights. The judgment is being hailed by misogynists of all hues, even those associated with the AIMPLB. The BJP wants a pat on its back as crusaders for the poor Muslim women, who have suddenly found their benefactors.
