This is the core of the proposal. UCC covers marriages, divorces, inheritence
Marriages
One person can marry only one other person, irrespective of gender. Gay marriages are also allowed. But one to one only. No Polygamy or Polyandry
All marriages must be registered.
Live in relations will be recognized if a couple is living together for a reasonable amount of time (say 2 years)
Divorces
There is no special way to divorce. You have to go through the court to get a divorce. You cant divorce even by saying talaq over a 3 months period
Inhertitence
All children, including adopted ones, are entitled to equal share of inheritance. No difference between share of boy or girl
Now tell me - Is it majoritarian or secular? Will @xeuss agree to this?
Since you mentioned Uniform Civil Code...I agree! (apologies if you have seen this before)
Why can a Hindu man not have four wives? Why can a Hindu man not divorce his wife? Why can a Muslim man not abandon his wife like Narendra Modi? Why can a Hindu man have a "rakhel" like Atal Bihari Vajpayee and not give her the status of a wife with all rights? Why does a Hindu woman have to marry a dog or a tree before she can get married?
I want equal rights for ALL!
I want Uniform Civil Code where a North Indian Hindu can marry his niece just like a South Indian Hindu does.
I want a Uniform Civil Code where a Hindu woman in a business family can get equal inheritance and not have her brothers gobble up all the inheritance under the Hindu Undivided Family Act
I want a Uniform Civil Code where a Rajasthani Hindu can eat beef just like the Hindus from Kerela.
I want a Uniform Civil Code where a temple priest will not refuse to adjudicate a wedding between two different castes.
I want a Uniform Civil Code where a Hindu woman can enter a temple during her periods.
I want a Uniform Civil Code where a Dalit cannot be prevented from visiting a temple.
