UCC to be implemented in State through proper procedure, says Bengal CM
Suvendu Adhikari, Chief Minister of West Bengal, announced that the state will implement the Uniform Civil Code (UCC) through a committee headed by a judge, following a similar procedure used in other states like Gujarat, Uttarakhand, and Assam. The move has been welcomed by several ministers, including Sankar Ghosh, who described it as a historic step. However, the Trinamool Congress expressed concerns about the BJP's agenda, arguing that UCC should be implemented through dialogue and constitutional values to avoid political polarisation.
