Ishrat Jahan, the woman who filed a petition to put an end to instant triple talaq in India is now facing public wrath.

With Supreme Court of India deeming triple talaq unconstitutional, her ordeals have magnified. She is now battling social boycott and is being insinuated for her work by her in-laws and neighbours in her hometown,&nbsp;Howrah&#39;s Pilkhana. There is now a smear campaign running against her.&nbsp;

As reported by Times of India, she said, &quot;Ever since the Supreme Court verdict has come in it has opened floodgates of expletives, insulting remarks and comments targeted at my character assassination from my neighbours and in-laws. I have to hear words like gandi aurat (bad woman), enemy of men and unislamic. Many neighbours have even stopped speaking to me.&quot;

She added,&nbsp;&quot;I am shocked, sad and I feel unsafe staying in this house. After such a long battle I don&#39;t have any strength left to fight these people. I want to focus on my four children now.&quot;

Ishrat who had filed the petition had been divorced by her husband in 2014 over the phone from Dubai. She was <a href="http://www.wionews.com/india-news/triple-talaq-verdict-what-it-took-for-the-five-women-petitioners-19326">one of the five petitioners</a> whose plea&nbsp;to the apex court prompted the instant triple talaq verdict.

Ishrat stays in&nbsp;Howrah&#39;s Pilkhana near Dobson Road. She has been staying in the house since 2004. It&#39;s the same house that her husband had purchased from the dowry she had brought at the time of their marriage. Her husband&#39;s elder brother and his family also live in the same house.

Sadly, even&nbsp;Ishrat&#39;s lawyer Nazia Ilahi Khan is being trolled online for fighting the case.

Ishrat feels that the ruling has done more bad to her than good. She said,&nbsp;&quot;Mere judgement by a court will not change the society. It will change the attitude of the people. In my case, they have become even more hostile mocking and ridiculing me. The change has to come from within the community. When people decide that they are going to help a vulnerable and helpless woman instead of her character assassination, no woman will suffer my fate.

&quot;My children have been out of school for the past four years since I did not have the money to afford their education. I am going to file a case seeking maintenance and expenses for my children&#39;s education. This is the birth right of my children.&quot;
