TIL Desk/National/New Delhi/ Prime Minister Narendra Modi has made a strong pitch for the uniform civil code (UCC), saying the Constitution also mentions of having equal rights for all citizens. Addressing a gathering of party workers here, Modi also said the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) has decided it would not adopt the path of appeasement and vote bank politics.
Modi said the opposition is using the issue of UCC to mislead and provoke the Muslim community. “You tell me, in a home, how can there be one law for one member and another law for another member?” Modi said.
“Will that home be able to function? Then how will the country be able to function with such a dual system? We have to remember that even in India’s Constitution, there is a mention of equal rights for all,” he said.
“These people (opposition) level allegations against us but the reality is that they chant Musalman, Musalman. Had they really been (working) in the interests of Muslims, then Muslim families would not have been lagging in education and jobs,” he said.
