UNIFORM CIVIL CODE & ITS IMPORTANCE

UNIFORM CIVIL CODE & ITS IMPORTANCE Vedang Kapoor, 10th Semester student at Amity Law School, Lucknow. Dr. Rajeev Kumar Singh, Assistant Professor at Amity Law School, Lucknow Download Manuscript ABSTRACT The Uniform Civil Code (UCC) remains a perennial hotbed of debate in India, embodying the intricate interplay between cultural multiplicity and the foundational tenets of equality and justice enshrined in the constitution. This treatise delves into a meticulous examination of the UCC, tracing its historical metamorphosis, constitutional moorings, and present-day pertinence. Through a scrupulous dissection of the pro and contra arguments surrounding the UCC, this inquiry seeks to illuminate its prospective ramifications on national integration, gender parity, and juridical homogeneity. By leveraging comparative analyses from nations with established uniform civil statutes, the research delineates both the auspicious prospects and inherent obstacles tied to the UCC’s enactment. Exemplary cases from countries such as Turkey and France highlight the potential of such codifications to advance egalitarianism and societal concord, whereas cautionary narratives underscore the labyrinthine challenges posed by cultural plurality and religious nuances. Additionally, the study outlines future research trajectories aimed at enhancing comprehension and manoeuvring through the intricate UCC discourse. By encouraging judicious decision-making and addressing societal apprehensions, policymakers can steer a course that upholds the principles of pluralism, equality, and justice within India’s diverse societal fabric. Through collective endeavours and pragmatic methodologies, the UCC discourse has the potential to act as a catalyst for substantive social transformation and advance towards a more equitable legal edifice.

Download Manuscript ABSTRACT Humankind is the most necessitated embodiment that is perceived to be of utmost importance in the world however the very premise of Armed Conflicts carves a conflictual niche towards people working for the preservation of the basic tenet of the existence of humans i.e. Human Rights. The very constructive presupposition entails that every single human being is entitled to the protection of their well-being however, the contrary becomes an aspect of normalcy during times of war. Humans themselves brazenly curtail the liberties of others thereby creating a situation of havoc.

Later in life, her situation declined. It appears that most women still do not have equal standing. The issues of women and gender justice have persisted throughout all periods of social development history. The social and economic standing of the nation shifts when women’s status improves. Women have a significant role in our society. From the moment of birth till the end of their lives, they perform a multitude of important functions in our society. She may have played every function and completed every task in today’s world promptly and effectively, yet she is still powerless as males continue to be the dominant gender in society. Women’s status is a difficult topic to describe and a complex issue. The position of women varies greatly throughout societies and cultures worldwide. An Indian woman possessed four distinct roles and statuses. She fulfilled these duties as a mother, a housewife, a wife, and a daughter. Wide-ranging changes are already occurring for women, whose position and role in society were once well defined and nearly unchangeable. Approximately 50% of the world’s population is female. Globally, a sizable portion of women are unemployed. Due to women’s unequal opportunities at work, the global economy suffers greatly.

This form of government acknowledges for the compromise of heterogeneity and topographical sovereignty within the diplomatical system. Our country is said to follow federalism incorporated with few undivided characteristics. Cooperative federalism is a form of government where the powers are shared among the elemental states and the central government, which is in implementation in our country. But India is in fact said to be a quasi-federal government due to the diluted distribution of power to the constituent states. One of the most unadulterated advantages of federalism is the decentralisation of power within the constituency.

Thus, this study finds it peremptory to analyse the functioning of federal governance in India and appraise its influence on the democracy of India.
