Property and matrimonial laws affront to nation’s unity: Centre
“Citizens belonging to different religious denominations follow different property and matrimonial laws, which is an affront to the nation's unity,” the Centre told the Delhi High Court while responding to a plea seeking direction to the government to draft a Uniform Civil Code.
The Centre, in an affidavit, also said it was awaiting the report of the Law Commission of India, which is examining various issues relating to the Uniform Civil Code.
The affidavit of the Ministry of Law and Justice came in response to a petition filed by BJP leader Ashwini Kumar Upadhyay, who has contended that the government has “failed” to put in place a uniform civil code, as provided under Article 44 of the Constitution.
