the muslim personal law board is nothing buta male ch auvenistic board comrising of true fanatics and reactionery elements.just to show that it is very progressive but in fact to curtail the rights of the muslim women comes once in news.the board takes more of a political decisions than social one and this may in accordance with thier masters elsewhere so that the women can only be used as a vote bank for any political parties, who will do good for the average muslim but for a price.in democracy all are equal and no one is more than equal but the board thinks no one including the law of the land could touch it.and our politicians who call themselves as great secular people in the world also want the bad writ of the board to continue so that thier vote banks are intact.the media and the secular elements of this country are only concerned about the ills in the hindu society and not in the muslim and christian societies.the board has grown as a demon and only thier own people can dismantle it.there should be equal law in the country for all irrespective of thier relegion like the marriage act,the will,divorce act.polygamy.only then will there be harmony in the society
