Regional consultation session in Tiruchi discusses marriage and divorce laws

The Hindu  

Laws dealing with issues related to marriage and divorce were the focus of the Southern Region Law Review consultation meet organised by Tamil Nadu National Law University and the National Council for Women here on Friday. The meeting was held over three sessions on TNNLU’s campus at Navalur Kottapattu, with 14 resource persons from Tamil Nadu, Kerala, Karnataka, Puducherry, Goa and Andhra Pradesh, deliberating on the framework for marriage and divorce laws in the Hindu, Muslim and Christian communities. Among the issues discussed at the opening session on Hindu law were expediting procedural delays in claiming maintenance and alimony, separating legal solutions for the third gender from the queer community, and respecting tribal customs related to matrimony. Meenachandra, Chief Judicial Magistrate, Tiruchi, said most of the marriage and divorce laws were women-oriented, but legislative impetus was needed to address the problems, particularly to the affected individuals.
