The All India Muslim Personal Law Board held an emergency meeting yesterday night to discuss the Uniform Civil Code, which Prime Minister Narendra Modi recently said should be implemented nationwide.
Prime Minister Modi, at a speech in Bhopal, made a strong pitch for the UCC saying that even the Constitution mentions equal rights for all citizens.
PM Modi said the BJP has decided it would not adopt the path of appeasement and vote bank politics and alleged that the Opposition is using the issue of UCC to mislead and provoke the Muslim community.
Uniform Civil Code refers to a set of overarching laws that apply to everyone in the country and replaces religion-based personal laws, rules of inheritance, adoption and succession.
