He claimed this amounted to leaving the fate of women in the hands of hardliners of the minority community.
Modi also reminded Kumar that he had imposed prohibition in the state on the demand of women at a function last year.
“If you can impose prohibition in Bihar on the call of a few women, why don’t you muster courage to oppose triple talaq?” he said.
Reformist measures were not implemented after taking consent of those opposing it and if it was so, the practise of ‘Sati’ would not have been done away with, he added.
Stating that the Allahabad High Court has observed that Muslim Personal Law was not above right to equality and fundamental rights enshrined in the Constitution, Modi asked the ruling grand alliance leaders to clarify their stand on triple talaq.
