UCC Launched In India? Hindutva Agenda Or True Secularism
The Uniform Civil Code (UCC) in India has been a topic of debate, often associated with both the concept of Hindutva agenda and true secularism. Proponents argue that implementing a UCC, which aims to replace personal laws based on religious practices with a common set of laws for all citizens, promotes gender equality, individual rights and social justice. However, critics argue that the push for a UCC is driven by a Hindu nationalist agenda, seeking to impose a majoritarian perspective on diverse religious communities. The discourse surrounding the UCC thus reflects a complex interplay between secular ideals and political motivations.
