Uniform Civil Code BJP's manifesto, pending with law panel: Law Min Meghwal

Meghwal said that UCC was being implemented in Goa and Uttarakhand has enacted a law for its implementation.

"The UCC was a part of BJP's manifesto, no doubt about it. We take up things in the manifesto when we think it is possible. States also worked on it. It was already implemented in Goa and Uttarakhand passed the act. The matter is pending with the Law Commission of India, other states are also interested," he said.

The terms of reference of the 23rd Law Commission, which was constituted earlier this year, included the Uniform Civil Code.
