Uttarakhand Rolls Out Uniform Civil Code, Becomes First State To Do So
Live LawToday, the Uttarakhand State Government rolled out the Uniform Civil Code in the state, almost a year after the Uttarakhand Assembly passed the Uttarakhand Uniform Civil Code Bill, 2024. An announcement was made in this regard by Chief Minister Pushkar Singh Dhami, who also launched the rules manual for the UCC and a portal for applications under the new rules at the CM's camp office in Dehradun. Some key aspects of the UCC are mandatory registration of live-in relations, conditions for a contract marriage, a ban on halal, iddat and polygamy, and similar inheritance rights for men and women. Unprecedented to Indian law, persons who are part of live-in relationships are now required to register before a Registrar within one month of "entering the relationship”.
