Delhi Reportedly Due to Use Uttarakhand Uniform Civil Code as Template
Political parties have been engaged in a debate over the proposed Uniform Civil Code ever since Prime Minister Narendra Modi made a strong pitch for its implementation during his virtual address to BJP workers last week.
The
Indian government is likely to use the draft of
Uniform Civil Code (UCC) in
Uttarakhand state as the
template for new upcoming
federal legislation, media reports quoting sources said on Tuesday.
The reports came after Uttarakhand state chief
Pushkar Singh Dhami held a meeting with
Home Minister Amit Shah and
Chairwoman of Uttarakhand UCC Drafting Committee Justice Ranjana Prakash Desai in the national capital on Monday.
Earlier on Sunday, Dhami told media that the UCC draft for Uttarakhand had been finalized by the expert committee and it will soon be implemented in the state.
The
proposed UCC seeks to formulate and implement a set of common laws for everyone in the country irrespective of religion, caste and creed.
Prime Minister Narendra Modi has stressed that a country cannot run on two different sets of rules.
However, hours after Modi made the call to introduce the UCC, the
All India Muslim Personal Law Board (AIMPLB) held an emergency meeting where the legal aspects of the proposed law were discussed.
The Muslim body decided to oppose the UCC and agreed on presenting its views more strongly in front of the Law Commission. The commission has opened a consultation period of 30 days for “views and ideas” from the public and “recognized” religious organizations.
