TMC MP Shatrughan Sinha Praises UCC In Uttarakhand, Wants Ban On Non-Vegetarian Food | Know More

Trinamool Congress MP and veteran actor Shatrughan Sinha on Tuesday had lauded Uttarakhand's pioneering move to implement the Uniform Civil Code (UCC) but also cautioned that its nationwide enforcement will require attention to address existing gaps and challenges.

Referring to the ban on non-vegetarian food, the actor-politician said that although he supports such a move, it would be difficult to implement it in some parts of the country.

As reported by news agency ANI, he said, "Not just beef, but non-veg food in general must be banned in the country. The governments have banned beef in many places, but in several areas, it라이브 바카라 still legal. People can eat it openly in the Northeast, but not in North India."

While describing the implementation of the Uniform Civil Code in Uttarakhand as commendable, Sinha cautioned against its nuances. He said that there are loopholes in the Uniform Civil Code. This is a major promise of the BJP, under which there is a provision of the same law for all religious communities in matters like marriage, divorce, succession, adoption, etc.

"In a similar way, there are many fine prints and loopholes in the UCC. An all-party meeting must be held before drafting UCC provisions," Sinha added, as quoted by ANI.
