As per Lawkidunya, It seems there’s been some confusion – there is no record of a Muslim Family Laws (Amendment) Act specifically passed in 2018. However, there have been several amendments made to the Muslim Family Laws Ordinance, 1961, in recent years.
Some notable amendments include:
– The Muslim Family Laws (Amendment) Act, 2021: This amendment aimed to further modify the Muslim Family Laws Ordinance, 1961.
– The Punjab Muslim Family Laws (Amendment) Act, 2015: This amendment was made to the Muslim Family Laws Ordinance, 1961, specifically in the province of Punjab.
– Draft Bill Muslim Family Laws (Amendment) Act, 2021: A draft bill was also proposed in the National Assembly of Pakistan to further amend the Muslim Family Laws Ordinance, 1961.
These amendments aim to improve the protection of women’s rights and promote social justice in Pakistan.
