New Delhi: The issue of Triple Talaq in the country is heated. The Supreme Court has reserved the decision in this matter. TheUnion Minister, Venkaiah Naidu, while addressing a gathering said that if the Muslim community can not close the practice of triple talaq, then the government will make laws to restrict it.

"It is for the society to take up the issue and it will be good if the (Muslim) society itself changed the practice. Otherwise, a situation may arise where the government will have to bring in a legislation (banning triple talaq)," Naidu said while addressing a meeting here.

"This is not to interfere in anybody's personal matters, but at the same time it's a question of justice to women. All women should have equal rights. Equality before law...That's the issue," the Union Information and Broadcasting Minister said.

"When it felt that such practices were against the society's good, the Hindu society discussed them and brought in reforms. Some more reforms are also needed and efforts should be made in that direction," he added.

"See humans as humans and don't separate them as Hindus, Christians or Muslims. No injustice should be done to women by such discrimination," Venkaiah maintained.
