Kerala CM vehemently against UCC
The Kerala CM has time and again spoken against the Uniform Civil Code (UCC). Last month, when talks about UCC gathered steam, the Kerala CM asked all MPs from Kerala to take a united stand against the UCC. The Kerala CM had said that laws such as UCC were being planned to be introduced in the country by BJP without due consultation with people of different castes and groups and that it was causing anxiety among the minorities. The Kerala CM was speaking at the meeting of MPs from Kerala who had gathered to discuss issues ahead of Monsoon session of Parliament.
UCC among the core promises of BJP
The UCC is among one of the core promises of the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) for a long time. Along with the abtrogation of Article 370 from Jammu and Kashmir and the construction of Ram Mandir in Ayodhya, the UCC has been an issue extremely important for BJP's parent organisation Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS). Recently, Prime Minister Narendra Modi too has made a push for the UCC, saying that one country could not have different laws for different people.
