Chhattisgarh Chief Minister Says Uniform Code Bill Likely In Winter Session
Chhattisgarh Chief Minister Vishnu Deo Sai has indicated that a bill regarding the Uniform Civil Code may be introduced during the upcoming winter session of the state assembly. The proposed legislation aims to standardize personal laws across different communities within the state.
Chhattisgarh Chief Minister Vishnu Deo Sai announced that the state government is considering the introduction of a Uniform Civil Code (UCC) bill. Speaking on the legislative agenda, the Chief Minister noted that the move is likely to be discussed during the winter session of the assembly as part of a broader legal framework.
