A dramatic scene unfolded at the Rampur district court in Uttar Pradesh on Friday afternoon when a woman physically confronted her husband with slippers after he allegedly pronounced instant triple talaq outside the courtroom. The incident, captured on video, quickly went viral on social media, sparking fresh debates over women's rights and misuse of the practice.

The woman, Asiya, a resident of Bambura village in Rampur’s Khajuria area, had married Ashid Ali of Dheemri village in 2018. The couple shares two daughters. According to Asiya, her marital life had been marred by physical abuse at the hands of her husband and in-laws. Eventually, unable to bear the alleged violence, she moved back to her maternal home with her children.

About five months ago, she filed a maintenance case in family court. On Friday, Asiya arrived at the court with her maternal aunt Reshma for a hearing, while her husband and father-in-law were also present.

Following the court proceedings, tensions flared outside the courtroom. Asiya alleged that both men verbally abused her, and her husband went on to pronounce triple talaq. When she protested, she claims they manhandled her.
