Uniform Civil Code: Darul Uloom Deoband filed a recommendation to the Law Commission against UCC's restrictions on religious freedom in India


News from Saharanpur The Islamic educational centre Darul Uloom Deoband, which is situated in Saharanpur, Uttar Pradesh, has now raised its voice in opposition to the Uniform Civil Code. Darul Uloom Deoband asserted in its submission to the regulation Commission that such a regulation is unnecessary in a nation like India. It goes against India's religious sensibilities.




Saharanpur. The Uniform Civil Code is now the subject of discussion throughout the nation. Darul Uloom Deoband, an Islamic educational institution in Saharanpur, suggested to the Law Commission on Uniform Civil Code that India should implement the UCC in the country, despite opposition from all opposition parties, including the All India Muslim Personal Law Board. Implementing it, according to Deoband, would imply going against the rights to religious freedom guaranteed by Articles 25 and 26 of the Indian Constitution.


Darul Uloom has added its voice to that of the Muslim Personal-Law Board and Jamiat Ulema-e-Hind in opposition to the Uniform Civil Code. In an acknowledgment to the Law Commission on Friday, Naib Mohtamim across Darul Uloom Maulana Abdul Khaliq Madrasi declared that this law is unnecessary for citizens of all groups in the nation. Because everyone in the nation will no longer be subject to their own particular religious laws once the Uniform Civil Code is in place. As a result, one law will govern matters such as marriage, divorce, inheritance, and other issues. He spoke out against societal disorder and religious freedom in the letter to the UCC.


The letter claimed that the Uniform Civil Code fostered social discontent and went against the Constitution's spirit. The freedom to practise one's culture and religion is protected by the constitution, it has been stated in the letter. However, this legislation will have an impact on cultural rights, which are guarded by people' basic rights, regardless of their identities. The Law Commission was informed in the letter that Darul Uloom, like other Muslim organisations, rejects the concept of equal citizenship since this law will cause the nation to regress significantly in terms of inclusivity and tolerance. Darul Uloom views it as violating constitutional rights because of this.
