SG's awesome logic 1. Secularism, equal rights, democracy, compliance with constitution etc are sole responsibilities of Hindus 2.

A good starting point could be Jijia tax for non-muslims in muslim dominated districts, no legal action if muslim commit any type of crime against kafirs.

Will not comment on other topics, but in this particular issue I believe it is important to contrast and compare with Pakistan and perhaps even Bangladesh, given that these three socities have the same origin and share a large portion of their history. Also, the same sets of people play the role of majority or minority in these countries - with their roles reversed between India and Pakistan/Bangladesh. So, when discussing these kinds of issues in one of these countries, the situation of the same issue in the others is not irrelevant. In fact, it is important to analyze and understand the situation in our neighbors because the parties involved in one country so often try to point to the situation in the other if it benefits their argument.
@@ashimjyoti Seriously? We never see these librandus ever talking about Hindus in Pakistan Or Bangladesh.

@@lovekanaujia345 Did you watch the video? Did you read my comment? I at least learnt that that some of the so called Islamic traditions have been illegal in Pakistan for many decades now whereas in India we got rid of some of them only recently, that too after much unnecessary controversy. If such regressive traditions are not followed even in an Islamic country, why should they exist in India, a secular country? Hence my comment on comparing and contrasting. It gives me a better perspective.
@@ashimjyoti I don't know why are we so obsessed with what Islamic countries are doing with Muslims. We should follow certain universal values and make laws based on our lived experiences. We don't learn from our own history. Well, Islamic countries also don't have any rights for non-Muslims. Should we also do the same?

May be most of paying subscribers of the Print prefer opinions critical of BJP & its politics. From a pronounced centrist worldview, the Print is veering left. That is not a problem as long as data based critique of policies are done, alongside honest coverage of good work & policies as well. Always blaming BJP is as tiring as the BJP propaganda noise. Also, used to enjoy interviews with prominent personalities like economists etc., which have mostly disappeared now.
If India is to be on the road to becoming a developed country the Uniform Civil Code is need of the hour. India is the only country in the world who profess secularism but has different set of personal laws for different communities.
1. Liberal or Not, Secular or Not. All parties should agree with UCC and let it pass without making a fuss. It's best to treat all citizens equally in eyes of the law. 2. Then opposition should raise real issues in elections like increasing Poverty, decreasing jobs, economic divide, inflation, electoral bonds, and weakening of the Supreme Court and ECI. 3. Bonus IF THEY HAVE GUTS, issues of cultural hegemony, anti-caste atrocities, minority atrocities, exclusion of Muslims from all top bureaucracy, and political positions.
Didn't Jawahlal Nehr bring the Hindu Marriage Act etc...and the Hindu society modernized......So the arguments made by anti BJP parties do not stand....if laws can be made for Hindus then for other societies too after 75 years of independence
How does it become a divisive political issue when people want to support regressive ideas? That way no progressive ideas can be implemented just because someone gets offended.
British made the laws to divide Indians... Congress continues it for their own vote bank, people like you support it only because BJP Opposes it. Hypocrisy at its peak.
It's not that. They should not have brought laws for Hindus as well. Either give Hindus the same sort of autonomy that Muslims have or give it to none. Tribals can be exceptions There are multiple Shariah courts which decide on divorces effectively making Indian courts as Hindu courts who decide divorce only for Hindus
we all know why peacefull want multiple wives. Gov should create a low of only 2 children no matter the number of wives and see Abduls forget about this practice

Shameless shekar will go on to argue that stealing or theft is a crime beacuse PPL who brought in such a law, were jealous why thieves can enjoy large amount of money without having to work hard. It's pathetic to hear him talk about marrying minors.
Pls share your views & anguish on JNU hate messages by commies againt Brahmins.. Don't just give over importance to Muslims..they are not the only community in this world.... I know this channel will not do you being a die-hard leftist..
Sorry Shekhar Ji. Don't judge us. We do not want UCC because we are jealous. People should be treated equally infront of the law. It's time Indian law modernize and people too. Speak for yourself
Disappointing episode .. SG did a decent job in highlighting the regressiveness of the Muslim personal law ( esp in comparison to a country like Pakistan ) , however , bringing this out as a polarising political weapon for BJP is trivialising the issue . If Muslim personal laws are regressive and there are ZERO attempt by the Muslim society to reform these laws, then the attempt by the ruling party to bring about these changes should not be politicised
Today sg has let his mask slip and his hate for BJP is in full view. He has no regard for rights of Muslim women,, why don't you ask your own wife and sisters if they would like to be part of a 4 wife family,,,? Do you think Muslim women are any different physically and emotionally? Hindu s also traditionally had many wives including raja dashrath and prithviraj Chauhan,, but you're so praise for Congress who took away polygamy for Hindus but oppose BJP if they do so for Muslims. Shame on you
This entire episode is a sham. Number of motivated inaccuracies like on Article 31C and Powers of State under 7th Schedule. I didn't hope that Shekhar Gupta would fall for inaccuracies to prove his point.
Only you and your type can make UCC polarizing topic how in a republic UCC not fundamental and basic common sense? !!!! Shekhar Gupta please at this age if you cannot figure this out feel sorry for you
The last part is pretty crude, he is very conveniently saying all BJP voters are being driven by "extra privileges enjoyed" by Muslim men. This is not very good.
I think Shekhar ji you are getting it wrong, or at least the way you are putting it is completely wrong. No one is looking at Muslim men with jealousy and saying OMG they are able to have fun, live life king size etc. Any sane person knows that polygamy is nothing but a huge issue, for mental, economical and physical health. Monogamy is the right way to go, so no one is looking at Muslim men, their polygamy laws with any jealousy, Point is that we look at these laws, and we wonder, why are you creating parallel laws there? Its an issue of principle. When all laws are equal for all, then what is the purpose of Muslim personal law?
I would like to ask the antediluvian sanghis why did they oppose the Hindu codification in mid 1950s? I am fir an UCC but refuse to use it as a weapon to beat Indian citizens who profess a certain belief system in the afterlife. I do not trust the bjp and its leader who has yet to utter a word of truth
I know for a fact that most Muslims talk to their clergy to get legal advice on their personal law matters. So, even if Uniform Civil Code is introduced, they may ignore it and continue to take the advice of their clergy. Heavens won’t fall. Implementation of Uniform Civil Code, (not Universal Civil Code), is in compliance with the constitution of India. Why object to it just because congress had no guts to do it, and BJP gains political mileage out of it? Incidentally, this matter is in the concurrent list. The States can amend the central law, to suit their State’s needs. There will be no constitutional crisis. Live-in relationships too need a legal framework for settling the disputes between the partners. Right now, the courts are deciding such issues on the basis of contract law and good conscience.
Shekar sounds extremely male chauvinistic and regressive when he says heartburn (8 min,45th sec) of Hindu men for opposing polygamy than actual concern of women involved and good care/education for kids from that wedlock. Cheap one shekar
Sir, till 9:27 you haven’t mentioned the pretext. That HINDU CIVIL CODE exists, and no other civil code exists. I thought you were becoming unbiased over the years. Guess wrong?! ThingsNeverChange!
U r all knowing great guru and narrator, but are burdened by weights of past loyalties!!!! What motivates you to sprinkle educative narration with partisian binary run down trivialisation.......
eXactly, I do not understand why the UCC law push from BJP is considered polarizing by Mr. Shekhar is? This may not be possible a decade ago, but now with more advancement, the reach of information, and awareness implementing such a significant amendment should not be that disruptive.
1. UCC will not affect freedom of religion and core religious practices but will affect areas of inheritance, equality of sexes, marriage and other civil issues. 2. While UCC get implemented, someone may chose to forgo its benefits and follow his or her religion prescribed rules but if the matter comes up before the Court, only UCC will be implemented. This will remove objections to UCC and leave the freedom to accept it or not to individuals. 3. Beyond this there is nothing in UCC; it is not against minorities; it is not because Hindu Code Bill is implemented but not for other religions etc. But in general, women from all religious groups will benefit from UCC. 4. Whether UCC is a part of Directive Principles are not, it is time to legislate on UCC and finish off one of the long pending issues.
I think a step by step approach is more feasible... We can start by raising the marriage age for all communities to a common number. Then we can create common inheritance rights for women so as to make them comply with article 14 and 15. These are low hanging fruits which have support in most of the society...
"POLYANDRY IN TIBET Tibetans, Sherpas, Ladakhis, Mustangese and other Himalayan peoples in remote areas still practice polyandry, a custom in which a woman can have two or more husbands. Polyandry usually involved a woman marrying all the brothers of a family - the eldest brother chose and married her, after which the younger brothers automatically became husbands. The elder brother was the master of the household, and the younger brothers had rights only when he was away. Sometimes a woman would marry a father and son. In Ladakh and some Himalayan Tribes in other parts of India, polyandry was officially ended in 1941 with the "Buddhist Polyandrous Marriages Prohibition Act." Earlier Ladakhis felt "Polyandry was good for Ladakh because it was a poor region and it kept the population from growing too large. They were made to feel ashamed of their traditions after the Act was introduced." After the act was instituted the population started growing at a rate of 16 percent. Today the economy is growing in Ladakh and so is the population.
Shamelessly trying to complicate a simple issue just because there are cultures and blood money, and pre historic barbaric practices.. and post 75 years of independence not wanting a UCC is shameful.. this is why the likes have lost all credibility
Have some level of professional integrity Gupta ji. You are comparing a progressive Joe Vs Wade judgements cancelling and efforts to safeguard abortion rights in different US states with opposition to a progressive Uniform Civil Code in India... Completely opposite spectrums. And for the nth time, Indian Constitution provides for a Quasi-federal nature of federalism in India which is different from federalism practised in USA.
A disaster of a CTC insulting the intelligence of the Print subscribers and audiences. Not a single convincing reason in that long rant on why is a uniform civil code bad-other than Muslim men will not like it! Role model country - Pakistan. Really? And finally, this reform will benefit the BJP; hence UCC is terrible! Now and then, Shekhar loses his marbles and gets carried away by his Islamo liberal frenzy. Today was one such day.
I would just like to add that while A.31C states that law enforcing DPSP will prevail over Fundamental right of A.14 & 19, Supreme court in Minerva mills case has struck down the extended version of A.31C as creating disharmony between DPSP and Fundamental rights . The protection of A.31C as on date is given only to law made in pursuance of DPSP given in A.39(b) & A.39 (c)
At this point I will not be surprised by anything bjp does. They may even introduce ucc nationwide in this winter session. They probably won't but who knows, right? (Except modi and Shah )
To be a truly secular country we need to have one law, one rule for people of all faiths.... People objecting UCC are actually against Liberal democracy.... Left so called liberals do not have clean hands in this issue.... Do u agree guptaji??
Have been waiting for a CTC episode on UCC for a very long time, but am not better off at all at the end of this unfortunately. Would have been interesting to know specific major implications for Muslims AND Hindus. Everyone in the country now seems to be an expert on triple talaq and polygamy but wouldn't there be other important implications? I live in the Middle East and am aware that as per Shariah law, Muslim women are entitled to a lower share of inheritance compared to men. But the practice amongst Hindus (Hindi speaking region at least) is that women hardly get anything (if at all) as inheritance from their parents. Will that change post UCC? As of now, a Hindu marriage is a contract as long as we have performed the ceremony around the agni. Will that be binding post UCC?
why trivialise is at hindu n muslim , it’s about girls of our country who are forced to marry at 16 no where you mentioned about it’s effect on population , plight of muslim girls by rich Arabs , i’ll effects on society as large
I was thinking that BJP just need to initiate the long delayed census (21) to create enough polarisation to win the 2024 election. Not that census is bad, but the anti-BJP side will probably come up in arms connecting it to CAA and NPR. Not allowing census to happen in itself should be sufficient to amplify the suspicion between various communities and will create necessary polarisation for BJP victory. UCC could then be parked for 2029, in time for Yogi’s coronation.

Also, the same sets of people play the role of majority or minority in these countries - with their roles reversed between India and Pakistan/Bangladesh. So, when discussing these kinds of issues in one of these countries, the situation of the same issue in the others is not irrelevant. In fact, it is important to analyze and understand the situation in our neighbors because the parties involved in one country so often try to point to the situation in the other if it benefits their argument.
@@ashimjyoti Seriously? We never see these librandus ever talking about Hindus in Pakistan Or Bangladesh. Same librandus never get tired talking about how Indian Muslims are so patriotic, 'chose to live in secular India'. When it comes to showing real secular principles, then they support extreme Islamic Orthodoxy and compare it with Muslims in neighboring countries.
@@lovekanaujia345 Did you watch the video? Did you read my comment? I at least learnt that that some of the so called Islamic traditions have been illegal in Pakistan for many decades now whereas in India we got rid of some of them only recently, that too after much unnecessary controversy. If such regressive traditions are not followed even in an Islamic country, why should they exist in India, a secular country? Hence my comment on comparing and contrasting. It gives me a better perspective.
@@ashimjyoti I don't know why are we so obsessed with what Islamic countries are doing with Muslims. We should follow certain universal values and make laws based on our lived experiences. We don't learn from our own history. Well, Islamic countries also don't have any rights for non-Muslims. Should we also do the same?
UCC is needed
Just like 370, we must avoid any discrimination based on geography, we must implement UCC from Center.
Going state vise is pragmatic to control any agitation like farm law. 👍🙏
Shekgar Gupta ,polyandry was practiced in Toras tribes of Niligris .Even Nehru had once advised the tribal leader to stop this practice .3 ,2,4,or 5 brothers shared one wife .
But Mulla Nehru would have never stopped any Muslim to marry more than one wife
Nehru Gandi were the curse that happened to this country
Curse they were!! Three Cs are the 4th C in India. Congress, Communists and Xian conversions are Cancer on Indian body politic!!
@@lovekanaujia345 Nehru created India as a quasi-is-lamic country. Just imagine a so-called secular country has Wakf act where mu-slim bodies can take control of any land parcel in the country
You really like your hyphens don't you ?
May be most of paying subscribers of the Print prefer opinions critical of BJP & its politics. From a pronounced centrist worldview, the Print is veering left. That is not a problem as long as data based critique of policies are done, alongside honest coverage of good work & policies as well. Always blaming BJP is as tiring as the BJP propaganda noise. Also, used to enjoy interviews with prominent personalities like economists etc., which have mostly disappeared now.
India has a choice to make. Either all have their own law (including repeal Hindu code) or have basic religious law well laid out rules.
If India is to be on the road to becoming a developed country the Uniform Civil Code is need of the hour. India is the only country in the world who profess secularism but has different set of personal laws for different communities.
1. Liberal or Not, Secular or Not. All parties should agree with UCC and let it pass without making a fuss. It's best to treat all citizens equally in eyes of the law.
2. Then opposition should raise real issues in elections like increasing Poverty, decreasing jobs, economic divide, inflation, electoral bonds, and weakening of the Supreme Court and ECI.
3. Bonus IF THEY HAVE GUTS, issues of cultural hegemony, anti-caste atrocities, minority atrocities, exclusion of Muslims from all top bureaucracy, and political positions.
Whats issue?
Hindu laws were modified
Why can't muslim laws??
Didn't Jawahlal Nehr bring the Hindu Marriage Act etc...and the Hindu society modernized......So the arguments made by anti BJP parties do not stand....if laws can be made for Hindus then for other societies too after 75 years of independence
Saying Pakistan was a country of one faith ( in 1961) is wrong. They just wiped out all other faith slowly
How does it become a divisive political issue when people want to support regressive ideas? That way no progressive ideas can be implemented just because someone gets offended.
If india unable to implement UCC...
It don't deserve to be call as secular nation...
I wanted to have 4 wives too !?? 🥺☹️ When my turn came these guys are changing the law itself. 😔
😂😂
British made the laws to divide Indians... Congress continues it for their own vote bank, people like you support it only because BJP Opposes it. Hypocrisy at its peak.
Shekhar Gupta is not able to forget his leftist roots, I guess. Shekhar Gupta losing his credibilty!
It's not that.
They should not have brought laws for Hindus as well.
Either give Hindus the same sort of autonomy that Muslims have or give it to none. Tribals can be exceptions
There are multiple Shariah courts which decide on divorces effectively making Indian courts as Hindu courts who decide divorce only for Hindus
UCC is a must for equality in a secular country.
All agreed but why put it on BJP polarization?
We have been seeing polarization since I can remember. I am already so called a senior citizen.
we all know why peacefull want multiple wives. Gov should create a low of only 2 children no matter the number of wives and see Abduls forget about this practice
But the government data says polygamy is more prevelant in non peaceful community and fertility rate of peaceful and non peaceful is almost similar.. So u bhakts should now explain how is ur population increasing ,😜🤣

Looks like a community wants to marry underage girls. So why were they offended by Nupur Sharma's comment? Truth hurts
spot on!
At the very least, BJP will attack this peace meal, just like how it did with Triple Talaq. ‘Universal minimum marriage age’ is likely to be next.
how does it benefit common man
@@tarantinofan8947 The law is for common man 😂
Not all laws benefit all men/Women🙋♂️
The Emperor Liberaleuse - Justice Chandrachud himself has endorsed UCC. I need no further validation for my support for UCC lol.
UCC is need of the house...you can't justify the unequal behaviour with our mushlim sisters... They also should have the rights
UCC is not polarising sir!!!
It's the right thing to do. Should have been done 75 years ago.
Stop calling UCC polarising.
Shekhar Gupta is not able to forget his leftist roots, I guess.
When Nehru forcefully bring Hindu code Bill ,what a visionary, progressive, Architect of India..
When Modi wants to bring sama laws for all.. fasicst.........
😂😂
spot on! Shekhar Gupta is not able to forget his leftist roots, I guess.
Fighting regressive practices and laws is divisive - Gems of Coupta ji.
Why state even bothers to take away polygamy or polyandry... Taking away our happiness.. 🙂 bring back polygamy/polyandry in our Hinduism too and make laws to minimize exploitation in it
+1
Shameless shekar will go on to argue that stealing or theft is a crime beacuse PPL who brought in such a law, were jealous why thieves can enjoy large amount of money without having to work hard.
It's pathetic to hear him talk about marrying minors.
Pls share your views & anguish on JNU hate messages by commies againt Brahmins.. Don't just give over importance to Muslims..they are not the only community in this world.... I know this channel will not do you being a die-hard leftist..
Sorry Shekhar Ji. Don't judge us. We do not want UCC because we are jealous. People should be treated equally infront of the law. It's time Indian law modernize and people too. Speak for yourself
In a secular Republic, religion specific laws, criminal or civil, doesn't makes any sense.
Instead of going after UCC, why not amend muslim marriage law and ban polygamy just like triple talaq was banned ? Wouldn’t that be more efficient?
The same Hindu Right opposed the Hindu Code Bill drafted by Ambedkar who are now advocating for UCC
Disappointing episode .. SG did a decent job in highlighting the regressiveness of the Muslim personal law ( esp in comparison to a country like Pakistan ) , however , bringing this out as a polarising political weapon for BJP is trivialising the issue .
If Muslim personal laws are regressive and there are ZERO attempt by the Muslim society to reform these laws, then the attempt by the ruling party to bring about these changes should not be politicised
Today sg has let his mask slip and his hate for BJP is in full view. He has no regard for rights of Muslim women,, why don't you ask your own wife and sisters if they would like to be part of a 4 wife family,,,? Do you think Muslim women are any different physically and emotionally? Hindu s also traditionally had many wives including raja dashrath and prithviraj Chauhan,, but you're so praise for Congress who took away polygamy for Hindus but oppose BJP if they do so for Muslims. Shame on you
Shekhar Gupta is not able to forget his leftist roots, I guess.
This entire episode is a sham. Number of motivated inaccuracies like on Article 31C and Powers of State under 7th Schedule. I didn't hope that Shekhar Gupta would fall for inaccuracies to prove his point.
Shekhar Gupta has no valid point, he is doing clear propoganda. He is not able to forget his leftist roots, I guess.
@@shubhamcloud deep in his heart, he wishes to remind his comrades occasionally that dare you not count me in your clique
Shekhar ji, your comments are too technical. It should have been simple to understand for common man...
Only you and your type can make UCC polarizing topic how in a republic UCC not fundamental and basic common sense? !!!! Shekhar Gupta please at this age if you cannot figure this out feel sorry for you
exactly. Shekhar Gupta is not able to forget his leftist roots, I guess.
The last part is pretty crude, he is very conveniently saying all BJP voters are being driven by "extra privileges enjoyed" by Muslim men. This is not very good.
Mr. Shekhar Gupta, A question you should ask yourself- Am I civilized enough?
I think Shekhar ji you are getting it wrong, or at least the way you are putting it is completely wrong. No one is looking at Muslim men with jealousy and saying OMG they are able to have fun, live life king size etc. Any sane person knows that polygamy is nothing but a huge issue, for mental, economical and physical health. Monogamy is the right way to go, so no one is looking at Muslim men, their polygamy laws with any jealousy,
Point is that we look at these laws, and we wonder, why are you creating parallel laws there? Its an issue of principle. When all laws are equal for all, then what is the purpose of Muslim personal law?
I would like to ask the antediluvian sanghis why did they oppose the Hindu codification in mid 1950s? I am fir an UCC but refuse to use it as a weapon to beat Indian citizens who profess a certain belief system in the afterlife. I do not trust the bjp and its leader who has yet to utter a word of truth
Isn't this 'Uniform Civil Code' and not 'Universal Civil Code'?
He fucked up big time
Shekhar, you start of by assuming them at UCC is al alam out Hindu-Muslim binary. Why would you do that? Why is your view so narrow?
One side you are weeping for secular country and other side you want personal law. Doglapan hai.
Shekhar Gupta is not able to forget his leftist roots, I guess.
People are ready but secularist and leftists are not ready
I know for a fact that most Muslims talk to their clergy to get legal advice on their personal law matters. So, even if Uniform Civil Code is introduced, they may ignore it and continue to take the advice of their clergy. Heavens won’t fall.
Implementation of Uniform Civil Code, (not Universal Civil Code), is in compliance with the constitution of India. Why object to it just because congress had no guts to do it, and BJP gains political mileage out of it?
Incidentally, this matter is in the concurrent list. The States can amend the central law, to suit their State’s needs. There will be no constitutional crisis.
Live-in relationships too need a legal framework for settling the disputes between the partners. Right now, the courts are deciding such issues on the basis of contract law and good conscience.
It is also an issue of freedom and equality for Muslim women
Shekar sounds extremely male chauvinistic and regressive when he says heartburn (8 min,45th sec) of Hindu men for opposing polygamy than actual concern of women involved and good care/education for kids from that wedlock.
Cheap one shekar
Totally, he showed his true colors!
Sir, till 9:27 you haven’t mentioned the pretext. That HINDU CIVIL CODE exists, and no other civil code exists. I thought you were becoming unbiased over the years. Guess wrong?! ThingsNeverChange!
You are a leader but it's despicable that you support obscurantism under guise of being balanced. Very sad.
Shekhar Gupta appeasing his NDTV friends, I guess.
U r all knowing great guru and narrator, but are burdened by weights of past loyalties!!!! What motivates you to sprinkle educative narration with partisian binary run down trivialisation.......
Spot on!
Most biased analysis. Seen only from anti-bjp perspective!
Shekhar Gupta is not able to forget his leftist roots, I guess. Shekhar Gupta losing his credibilty!
Why no India enact a Uniform Civil Code when Pakistan has adopted their UCC decades ago?
It think the matter should be discussed on its merit. I'm disappointed that this is only being seen from a political spectrum.
How UCC can be Polarising.....
Anything can be polarising when elections come up.
Me. SG don't give historical Narration Simply answer Whether you're are in favour or not? Or the country should run by Sariya law in future.
for a group which is offended by everything but ashamed of nothing, it's indeed polarizing.
eXactly, I do not understand why the UCC law push from BJP is considered polarizing by Mr. Shekhar is? This may not be possible a decade ago, but now with more advancement, the reach of information, and awareness implementing such a significant amendment should not be that disruptive.
Shekhar is a leftist, so it is polrizing for him personally. He just was to impress his NDTV friends I guess.
US its not about divorce but abortion and no comparison to uniform civil code, once again Guptaji on his own soap box spreading his views
Biased analysis of constitutional provisions by a Professor, who has only bookish knowledge, total chaff, no substance.
Shekhar Gupta is not able to forget his leftist roots, I guess. Shekhar Gupta losing his credibilty!
Why not allow hindu men four wives??
1. UCC will not affect freedom of religion and core religious practices but will affect areas of inheritance, equality of sexes, marriage and other civil issues. 2. While UCC get implemented, someone may chose to forgo its benefits and follow his or her religion prescribed rules but if the matter comes up before the Court, only UCC will be implemented. This will remove objections to UCC and leave the freedom to accept it or not to individuals. 3. Beyond this there is nothing in UCC; it is not against minorities; it is not because Hindu Code Bill is implemented but not for other religions etc. But in general, women from all religious groups will benefit from UCC. 4. Whether UCC is a part of Directive Principles are not, it is time to legislate on UCC and finish off one of the long pending issues.
I think a step by step approach is more feasible... We can start by raising the marriage age for all communities to a common number.
Then we can create common inheritance rights for women so as to make them comply with article 14 and 15.
These are low hanging fruits which have support in most of the society...
"POLYANDRY IN TIBET
Tibetans, Sherpas, Ladakhis, Mustangese and other Himalayan peoples in remote areas still practice polyandry, a custom in which a woman can have two or more husbands.
Polyandry usually involved a woman marrying all the brothers of a family - the eldest brother chose and married her, after which the younger brothers automatically became husbands. The elder brother was the master of the household, and the younger brothers had rights only when he was away. Sometimes a woman would marry a father and son.
In Ladakh and some Himalayan Tribes in other parts of India, polyandry was officially ended in 1941 with the "Buddhist Polyandrous Marriages Prohibition Act." Earlier Ladakhis felt "Polyandry was good for Ladakh because it was a poor region and it kept the population from growing too large. They were made to feel ashamed of their traditions after the Act was introduced." After the act was instituted the population started growing at a rate of 16 percent. Today the economy is growing in Ladakh and so is the population.
Shamelessly trying to complicate a simple issue just because there are cultures and blood money, and pre historic barbaric practices.. and post 75 years of independence not wanting a UCC is shameful.. this is why the likes have lost all credibility
Shekhar Gupta is not able to forget his leftist roots, I guess.
Democratic secular countries should not have religious personal laws, it might be historic mistake. It might be time came to abolish these.
If religion is basis for separate personal laws then why not the same be applied for criminal laws
Just because some topics are complicated doesn't mean you should left it unsolved .
Have some level of professional integrity Gupta ji. You are comparing a progressive Joe Vs Wade judgements cancelling and efforts to safeguard abortion rights in different US states with opposition to a progressive Uniform Civil Code in India... Completely opposite spectrums. And for the nth time, Indian Constitution provides for a Quasi-federal nature of federalism in India which is different from federalism practised in USA.
Put religion aside and do what is right for a woman and man. For marriage, divorce, inheritance etc
A disaster of a CTC insulting the intelligence of the Print subscribers and audiences.
Not a single convincing reason in that long rant on why is a uniform civil code bad-other than Muslim men will not like it!
Role model country - Pakistan. Really?
And finally, this reform will benefit the BJP; hence UCC is terrible!
Now and then, Shekhar loses his marbles and gets carried away by his Islamo liberal frenzy. Today was one such day.
Why don't you talk positively ucc is good for the nation.
Shekhar Gupta is not able to forget his leftist roots, I guess.
If different states will make its uniform civil code then it will not be one law but 28 law
What about gender equality ….. irrespective of any personal law!! Typical of SG giving one sided commentary and ignoring key issue
Shekhar Gupta is not able to forget his leftist roots, I guess.
I would just like to add that while A.31C states that law enforcing DPSP will prevail over Fundamental right of A.14 & 19, Supreme court in Minerva mills case has struck down the extended version of A.31C as creating disharmony between DPSP and Fundamental rights . The protection of A.31C as on date is given only to law made in pursuance of DPSP given in A.39(b) & A.39 (c)
I have similar comments, and it seems Shekhar intentionally skipped this to make his point. Even he employs these cheap tricks.
Fuck off , ain't not way we are going to let those madarchod implement sharia
At this point I will not be surprised by anything bjp does.
They may even introduce ucc nationwide in this winter session. They probably won't but who knows, right? (Except modi and Shah )
And this is why I don't subscribe to the print.
As usual you said a lot while saying nothing - have some courage and call spade a spade
To be a truly secular country we need to have one law, one rule for people of all faiths.... People objecting UCC are actually against Liberal democracy.... Left so called liberals do not have clean hands in this issue.... Do u agree guptaji??
Have been waiting for a CTC episode on UCC for a very long time, but am not better off at all at the end of this unfortunately. Would have been interesting to know specific major implications for Muslims AND Hindus.
Everyone in the country now seems to be an expert on triple talaq and polygamy but wouldn't there be other important implications? I live in the Middle East and am aware that as per Shariah law, Muslim women are entitled to a lower share of inheritance compared to men. But the practice amongst Hindus (Hindi speaking region at least) is that women hardly get anything (if at all) as inheritance from their parents. Will that change post UCC? As of now, a Hindu marriage is a contract as long as we have performed the ceremony around the agni. Will that be binding post UCC?
Don't you have to register though?
why trivialise is at hindu n muslim , it’s about girls of our country who are forced to marry at 16
no where you mentioned about it’s effect on population , plight of muslim girls by rich Arabs , i’ll effects on society as large
Shekhar Gupta is not able to forget his leftist roots, I guess.
I was thinking that BJP just need to initiate the long delayed census (21) to create enough polarisation to win the 2024 election. Not that census is bad, but the anti-BJP side will probably come up in arms connecting it to CAA and NPR. Not allowing census to happen in itself should be sufficient to amplify the suspicion between various communities and will create necessary polarisation for BJP victory. UCC could then be parked for 2029, in time for Yogi’s coronation.
SG has given new abbreviation of UCC - universal for uniform
None of the insecurities are valid enough
