New Delhi: Uniform Civil Code is included in BJP's third core agenda after Ramjanmabhoomi and Article 370. The Supreme Court has given a big statement on this. The apex court said why no attempt has been made so far to implement the Uniform Civil Code in the country. A bench of Justice Deepak Gupta and Justice Anirudh Bose made these remarks in the judgment of a case. The apex court said, Goa is a glaring example of this in the country, where a uniform civil code goes beyond religion.

This is when the top court had clearly upheld this in three cases. Justice Gupta said Goa is the only state where the Uniform Civil Code applies to all citizens except the protection of certain limited rights. The constitution-makers, considering the Directive Principles of State Policy, had expressed hope and hope through Article-44 that states should ensure uniform civil code for all citizens throughout India. However, no action has been taken so far.
