Hyderabad, 1/5: In a statement that could spark off a political debate, All India Majlis-E-Ittehadul Muslimeen (AIMIM) President Asaduddin Owaisi squarely rejected the need for Uniform Civil Code (UCC) in India.
“It (Uniform Civil Code) is not required in this country. The Law Commission of India has opined that a UCC is not needed in the country,” Owaisi said in Aurangabad on Saturday evening.
Owaisi, who was accompanied by Aurangabad MP and AIMIM Maharashtra President Imtiaz Jaleel and AIMIM Maharashtra Working President and educationist Dr.Gaffar Quadri, was asked a question about the BJP-ruled states planning to come out with their own versions of the civil code.
