Senior BJP leader Amit Shah announced that the party intends to introduce the Uniform Civil Code (UCC) in Uttar Pradesh should it secure another term in the state assembly.
The statement was reported by The Meghalayan Express, which cited Shah's recent remarks.
The UCC, a long‑standing demand of the BJP, seeks to replace religion‑based personal laws with a common set of civil laws for all citizens. Shah's comment signals the party's intention to prioritize this agenda in Uttar Pradesh if it returns to power.
