After Prime Minister Modi made a strong case for the same rules for everyone in election-bound Madhya Pradesh, a huge controversy over the Uniform Civil Code began. BJP national spokesman and attorney Gaurav Bhatia said that AIMIM chairman Asaduddin reads the Quran but not the Constitution. At a televised news discussion, the BJP spokesman said, “If Owaisi’s degree is not a fake, then at first he should give advice to the Law Commission as sought until July 14.” The BJP leader stated, “All those criticising UCC should submit their recommendations to the commission.”
In his first speech after returning from his trip to the US, where he was questioned about the rights of minorities in India, Prime Minister Modi called for the adoption of the Uniform Civil Code and said that families cannot function if there are two sets of regulations for the family members. The Congress, RJD, and DMK were among the groups in the opposition who harshly criticised PM Modi’s remarks.
Leading the effort, Owaisi said that it’s likely that PM Modi misunderstood former US president Barack Obama’s counsel. Owaisi questioned, “Will you end Hindu Undivided Family?” Obama said in an interview that if he had met PM Modi on his visit to the US, he would have discussed the rights of religious minorities and how India would break apart if those rights are not upheld.
Owaisi questioned why Pakistan’s legislation served as PM Modi’s inspiration as he mentioned instances of Muslim-majority nations that did away with triple talaq years before India. “You passed a law here prohibiting triple talaq, but it had no effect on the ground, and the exploitation of women only grew,” Owaisi said.
“First implement UCC to Hinduism”
The DMK reacted on the UCC and stated it should be applied to Hinduism so that SC/STs may attend the temples, while the Congress chose not to address the Uniform Civil Code but said that the Prime Minister’s mention of the matter is a distraction from what is occurring in Manipur.
Following PM Modi’s remarks, the All India Muslim Personal Law Board made the decision to vehemently reject the Uniform Civil Code.
Describe the Uniform Civil Code. Timeline
A uniform collection of laws, applicable to all people of the nation, regardless of their religious beliefs, is referred to as the uniform civil code.
The Law Commission received a referral from the law minister in 2016 about the introduction of a uniform civil code.
A Uniform Civil Code was deemed “neither necessary nor desirable at this stage” in a consultation document the Law Commission released in 2018.
The notification was published in June after the 22nd Law Commission made the decision to reopen consultations on the matter.
