The Uniform Civil Code's Uneven Road to Reality The Bharatiya Janata Party's (BJP) push to implement the Uniform Civil Code (UCC) across all 21 NDA ruled states by 2029 has created a challenge for its oldest ally, Janata Dal (United), in Bihar.
Home Minister Amit Shah's assertion that UCC will be implemented in BJP ruled states before the next Lok Sabha elections has sparked differing reactions within JD(U), raising questions about the party's stance on this contentious issue.
The BJP's move to implement UCC is a key component of its long standing ideological objective, but it comes with complex webs of alliances and regional sensitivities.
