The implementation of a Uniform Civil Code (UCC) has been a long-standing issue in India. The UCC would provide a common set of laws governing personal matters such as marriage, divorce, inheritance, and adoption, for all citizens regardless of their religion. In this report, we examine the progress made by various states in India towards implementing a UCC. We analyze the legal and political challenges associated with implementing a UCC and provide a comprehensive overview of the current status of UCC implementation in each state and whether it impacts each state as an individual. People and researchers have long-standing doubts about the consequences of the application of UCC by a state government. Our report also discusses the potential benefits and drawbacks of implementing a UCC and provides recommendations for policymakers and stakeholders to help ensure a smooth and effective implementation of a UCC in India.
