Parsi Women Rights

A Parsi trust today broke age-old traditions and informed the Supreme Court that it would allow a Parsi woman and her sisters, who have married outside the community, to visit the 'Tower of Silence' and attend prayers in the event of the death of their parents.

To every fanatic out there who wants to come between this child and the religion that is his birth right, a word of caution - your karma awaits you. Because God is watching.

After marrying a Hindu man, does a Parsi woman lose her religious identity and access to places held sacred by the Zoroastrian faith? Five judges of the Supreme Court will tomorrow take up the case of Goolrokh Gupta who was refused entry to places of worship after marrying a man outside her religion

The Supreme Court in August will analyse whether a Parsi woman after marriage deemed to take the religion of her husband would cease to be a Parsi. The top court will also examine if a Parsi woman can be deprived of her religious identity and rights after marrying a man of different religion.
