Hamid Umar Dalwai (Marathi: हमीद उमर दलवाई; Urdu: حمید عمر دلوای; 29 September 1932[2] – 3 May 1977) was an Indian journalist, social reformer, thinker, activist, author, writer[2] and the founder of Muslim Satyashodhak Mandal[3] and Indian Secular Society. Despite being an atheist,[4] he attempted and advocated for several modernistic and liberal reforms within the Indian Muslim community, most notably being his futile agitation against the practice of triple talaq and polygyny during the 1960s.[5] He has also authored several books, including Muslim Politics in Secular India (1968).
