Row over HC judge's remarks on UCC, 'India will run as per wishes of majority'
The New Indian Express Dharmapuri
|December 10, 2024
ALLAHABAD High Court judge Justice Shekhar Kumar Yadav's statements on the Uniform Civil Code (UCC) have sparked outrage in political circles and social media.
The main aim of the UCC was to promote social harmony, gender equality, and secularism, Justice Yadav said while addressing a convention of the Legal Cell and High Court Unit of the Vishva Hindu Parishad (VHP) in Library Hall of the Allahabad High Court in Prayagraj on Sunday. He stated that the country would run as per the wishes of the "Bahusankhayak" (majority) and that the UCC would soon become a reality.
Justice Yadav said that if the country was one, the Constitution was one, and the people were one then why couldn't the law be one, while mooting the idea for a UCC.
