Amit Shah announces BJP-led NDA will implement Uniform Civil Code in 21 States by 2029, ensuring equal rights and justice.

Union Home Minister Amit Shah said he was confident that the Uniform Civil Code (UCC) would be implemented in all 21 NDA-ruled states before 2029. Shah said the UCC had already been introduced in several states and would be expanded to all NDA-ruled states before the next Lok Sabha election.

From this vantage point, the UCC isn't an attack on any faith's identity — it's an assertion that constitutional equality should mean the same set of civil rights and protections for every Indian citizen, most notably women who have historically borne the brunt of unequal personal law provisions across multiple religious codes.
