( On June 27, Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s speech in poll-bound Madhya Pradesh thrust discussions about the Uniform Civil Code (UCC) into the spotlight, triggering nationwide debates on its potential implementation. Soon after, on July 8, Uttarakhand Chief Minister Pushkar Singh Dhami announced that the UCC would be enforced in the state once its draft committee submits the report.
Modi’s assertive stance on the UCC, as part of the 2024 general election campaign, reflects the longstanding agenda of the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) to implement the UCC and abolish personal laws concerning marriage, divorce, and succession.
The proposal of the UCC has encountered resistance from orthodox Hindus, Muslims, Sikhs, and other minorities whose customs have remained untouched since the time of British rule. Even the framers of the Constitution, unable to resolve the conundrum it poses, prudently included it in the Directive Principles of State Policy (DPSP) rather than the Fundamental Rights.
The Uniform Civil Code aims to establish a uniform legal framework for all citizens, regardless of their religion. Article 44 in the DPSP, found in Part IV of the Constitution, states that “the State shall endeavour to secure for the citizens a uniform civil code throughout the territory of India”.
