For the interested reader, I have compiled extracts from the debate, including the principal antagonists, Arif Mohammed Khan and Z.R. Ansari, both ministers of state in Rajiv Gandhi’s government, and placed them on my website https://www.rajivmisunderstood.com. They can be accessed by scanning the QR code at the end of the chapter. The extracts include not only the debate on the Private Member’s motion but also the subsequent discussions in the Lok Sabha and Rajya Sabha on the draft Muslim Women (Protection of Rights on Divorce) Bill, 1986, in which there were participants from virtually every political party represented in Parliament, many at a high level in their respective parties, such as L.K. Advani and Somnath Chatterjee, besides Madhu Dandavate for the Opposition and, for the treasury benches, Home Minister P.V. Narasimha Rao, Law Minister Sen and the minister of state for home, Ram Niwas Mirdha, who, in 1973, had first assured the house that Section 125 of the revised Criminal Procedure Code, the bone of contention in Shah Bano, did not impinge on Muslim Personal Law. In addition, Arif ’s perspective on the matter has been extracted from a very detailed interview he gave to Scroll in 2015.
