Maneka Gandhi, Union Minister for Women and Child Development: It's a good judgement and its another step towards gender justice and gender equality.

Congress party: Welcomed the Supreme Court decision striking down instant triple talaq.

Yogendra Yadav:  A victory for Muslim women and womens movement in general. Kudos to organisations like Bharatiya Muslim Mahila Andolan for courage and consistency. Muslim leaders, 'secular' political parties must focus on real Muslim issues: educational lag, job and housing discrimination, false detentions, not triple talaq.

Subramanian Swamy, BJP leader: Happy that the majority of  judges have struck down triple talaq. Now it's time for comprehensive uniform civil code.
