Assam chief minister Himanta Biswa Sarma on Saturday said if Muslim women are to be given justice, Uniform Civil Code has to be brought in. As quoted by news agency ANI, the BJP chief minister said every Muslim woman wants Uniform Civil Code. "Ask any Muslim woman. UCC is not my issue, it is an issue for all Muslim women. No Muslim woman wants her husband to bring home 3 other wives," the chief minister said in New Delhi.

The debate over Uniform Civil Code has been rekindled with some BJP-ruled states talking about implementing it, with the All India Muslim Personal Law Board already opposing these talks. General secretary of All India Muslim Personal Law Board, Maulana Khalid Saifullah Rahmani recently issued a statement saying the talk of adoption of Uniform Civil Code by Uttarakhand and Uttar Pradesh governments or by the Centre is just rhetoric aimed at diverting the attention of the public from issued like price rise, unemployment etc.


The fresh debate over the Uniform Civil Code started after Himachal Pradesh chief minister Jairam Thakur said his government is open to implementing it. Uttarakhand chief minister Pushkar Singh Dhami said a high-level committee will be set up soon to draft a Uniform Civil Code.

UP government's Muslim minister Danish Azad Ansari said there will be chaupals in the state to acquaint people with the 'merits' of the Uniform Civil Code.

With the fresh talks on Uniform Civil Code, Congress leader Salman Khurshid said the government should clearly give a definition of the Uniform Civil Code. In the Constitution, there is a mention of UCC that there will be an attempt to apply a uniform civil code but a clear definition is never clear and what will be the impact. The government never said it will implement the Hindu code when it talks about UCC. The better practice of any religion is applied whether it is Islam, Christianity or other religion. They should tell what is the definition of UCC then only we can react," Khurshid said.

 

Less than 0.5% of marriages in India are polygamous but BJP is obsessed by Muslims and makes it sound like there is a crisis. Moreover, they can't control men having more than one partner which is common in the West.

"Today, people in the U.S. are rarely prosecuted for living with multiple romantic partners ... Utah passed a bill to reduce the penalties for adults who voluntarily live in polygamous relationships, making the practice an infraction, a low-level offense that is not punishable with jail time. In other parts of the world, including swaths of the Middle East and Asia, polygamy is legal but not practiced widely. And in some countries – particularly in a segment of West and Central Africa known as the polygamy belt – the practice is frequently legal and widespread."

He envies muslim men.
 
Does he think real life is like high school drama?
 
Polygamy should be decriminalised but second marriage should not be accepted by court as valid marriage.
If anybody still live with such partner, its upto them.
Also divorce should be made easier in India, its really slow and painful. In Bangladesh(am told) an woman can start a divorce proceeding and it will be over in 3 months.
 
We need to ban caste based Hindu marriages in Bangladesh. Hindu women should be allowed to choose any man of her liking from other castes/religions.
so if you are a hindu and happen to like somebody from your own caste, govt wont allow you to marry?
 
Government will allow that, but if it's arranged marriage then girl's parents cannot ask about the guy's caste or publicly look for a groom from a particular caste. That should lead to jail time.
that wont solve the problem, people will stop asking openly, that's all.
btw is polygamy legal in bd?
