Around 89% Muslim women feel that the government should intervene and help in codification of law and 86% want religious leaders to take responsibility of justice for them. This and many other findings have come out in a study conducted by Bharatiya Muslim Mahila Andolan (BMMA), an organisation that looks to take up rights of Muslim women in particular and women in general.
The study was conducted across 10 states with a sample size of 4,719 Muslim women. Published as a book named 'Seeking Justice Within Family - A national story on Muslim Women's Views on Reforms in Muslim Personal Law' by Dr Noorjehan Safia Niaz and Zakia Soman, the study was released in a press conference at Marathi Patrakar Sangh on Tuesday.
