Teach The Lawmakers

The Imrana episode leaves a lot to be desired from Indian law. How can a law-framing authority, in this case, the All India Muslim Personal Law Board(AIMPLB), allegedly threaten to endanger the life of the lady raped by her father-in-law, if she continues to live with her husband, instead of with her father-in-law, as directed by the country's Muslim lawmakers? Such dogmatic and despotic lawmakers need to undergo a crash course in basic human morality before they can pass on such inhuman judgements.
