Uniform Civil Code (UCC) MEETUP

Uniform Civil Code (UCC): Common Civil Law vs Personal Laws – Understanding the Debate
The Uniform Civil Code (UCC) remains one of India's most significant constitutional and public policy discussions. It concerns the idea of having a common set of civil laws governing matters such as marriage, divorce, inheritance, adoption, and succession for all citizens, while also raising important questions about the role of existing personal laws followed by different religious communities.
Supporters believe that a Uniform Civil Code could strengthen equality before the law, promote gender justice, simplify legal processes, and ensure greater legal uniformity. Others emphasize the importance of preserving India's cultural diversity, religious freedom, and long-standing personal traditions. Understanding these diverse viewpoints is essential for informed civic participation.
Citizen Setu invites students, legal professionals, policymakers, researchers, civil society members, educators, journalists, entrepreneurs, and citizens from across India to join a balanced, respectful, and non-partisan discussion on the constitutional, legal, social, and practical dimensions of the Uniform Civil Code.
The session will feature live opinion polls, an interactive Q&A, a Myth vs Fact discussion, an open public forum, and participant experience sharing to encourage meaningful dialogue and informed public awareness.
