West Bengal to Implement Uniform Civil Code Following Legal Procedures Like Gujarat and Assam

Suvendu Adhikari, West Bengal's Chief Minister, stated the state will implement the Uniform Civil Code following legal procedures like Gujarat and Assam. The BJP government is expected to introduce a UCC bill during the current Budget Session, earlier than their initial six-month pledge. The UCC aims to establish uniform civil laws across all religions, though opposition groups raise concerns about religious freedom and identity.
