Maharashtra Invites Public Feedback on Uniform Civil Code Through Online SurveyPreviousNext

Maharashtra's government has launched a 37-question online survey to gather public feedback on implementing a Uniform Civil Code (UCC). The questionnaire covers topics such as marriage, divorce, inheritance, bigamy, halala, and live-in relationships. Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis aims to introduce a UCC Bill in the state assembly's winter session. The survey seeks opinions on whether a UCC can respect religious freedoms, reduce legal disputes, and standardize personal laws, with responses accepted until November 15.
