    The objective behind UCC in India is to have a common set of laws governing personal matters such as marriage, divorce, inheritance, and adoption for all citizens, irrespective of their religious affiliations.<\/p>

    UCC sounds simple enough but has become a very emotive issue for many decades in India.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

    We hear many narratives in the media and public domain.<\/p>

    • State cannot interfere in faith and religious matters<\/li>
    • Majority trying to enforce their \u201csystem\u201d over minority. This is frequently made out as Hindu vs. Muslim narrative with Muslims as the losers if UCC comes in to effect<\/li>
    • UCC is not going to happen anyway. This is just a \u201cjumla\u201d to polarise people and distract from real issue \u2013 development. UCC is a very complex issue since it has many stakeholders and also very emotional issue since it is perceived as a matter of faith. So, it is important to make ourselves aware of underlying facts.<\/li>
    • Is UCC really needed in India, which is multi-cultural and secular? What have other secular countries done? Is there a parallel to be drawn?<\/li>
    • What does our constitution actually say about UCC?<\/li>
    • Is UCC beneficial to the society as whole? Does it make its citizens or certain sections of the society more secure and give them rights that they did not have?<\/li>
    • Has this UCC become just a political issue rather than a societal one?<\/li>
    • Is it just a Hindu vs. Muslim issue? Is it that somehow Hindus gain and Muslims lose out? Is it even right to think in terms of gain and loss or a zero-sum-game? Or is it to be seen as a change?<\/li>
    • What changes for Hindus? What is the history of changes in Hindu personal law over the last 100 years?<\/li>
    • What changes for the Muslims? What is the history of changes in Muslim personal law over the last 100 years?<\/li>
    • What about other religions \u2013 Christians, Jains, Buddhists, Parsis, Sikhs, etc.?<\/li>
    • What if we look through the gender lens?<\/li><\/ul>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

      There are many such aspects of UCC that we need to get a better understanding of. We are excited to invite you to share your views on the Nation First Dialogues (NFD) session on this very interesting and very contentious policy matter.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
