“In the coming days, there should be one law for the Hindus, Muslims, upper castes, lower castes, good, and evil,” the Chief Minister said, adding that the country paid a heavy price for the Congress.
The Home Department is currently studying how other states have implemented the code, and Yadav has been briefed on the findings. Uttarakhand, Assam, and Gujarat have so far implemented the UCC.
The state government is planning to set up a five-member committee chaired by a retired judge. Further steps to implement the code will be taken based on the reports of this committee. After getting a green signal from the BJP’s central leadership, the state has begun the process for the implementation of the UCC.
