Lucknow: A man pronounced triple talaq against his wife allegedly for not serving hot vegetables in dinner. The unfortunate incident occurred in a Pilibhit village in April which came to light after the woman lodged an FIR.

In the police complaint, the woman revealed that she was married to Mohd Salman of Rajaganj locality on May 23, 2021 as per Muslim customs, but her in-laws did not take her along with them as her family failed to give dowry.

The complaint stated that at around 2pm on April 12, 2022 her husband assaulted her and pronounced triple talaq, saying that she had served cold vegetables to him. The man and his family drove her out of the house and Umra has been living at her mother’s house ever since.
After trying to sort out issues with Salman several times, Umra finally got the FIR lodged under section 3/4 of the Muslim Women (Protection of Rights on Marriage) Act, 2019 as well as Indian Penal Code (IPC) sections 498-A (for domestic violence), 323 (for voluntarily causing hurt), 354 (for using criminal force on woman) and 504 (for insulting).
