Abstract

Divorce under personal laws in India has never been seen as a severance of marital tie rather as a misfortune. The termination of marriage was always conceived as against the almighty’s desires. Even when marriage was tie for eternity in archaic personal law, there were certain grounds were this tie could be severed. The problem with the available grounds was that those were mainly given to the husband. The feminist perspective of ancient Hindu and Muslim divorce laws have been discussed in this paper. Further, the paper here highlights the status of women under Hindu and Muslim personal laws and bring an analysis of the personal laws. It also makes a comparison between modern and ancient grounds of divorce.
