No need for uniform civil code in diverse country like India: Anbumani Ramadoss

PMK leader Anbumani Ramadoss on Sunday, July 30, 2023 reiterated that his party would oppose tooth and nail any move to enact a uniform civil code as it would destroy the diverse fabric of the nation.

Addressing a party functionary’s private function here at Tirunelveli, Dr. Anbumani said a country such as India, where different food, wedding practices, language, culture, religion etc. were being followed, was not in need of a uniform civil code. It would be against its diversity, which was the beauty, uniqueness and strength of the country. If there was any change or amendment needed in the existing laws in connection with a particular issue it could be addressed appropriately.

“In fact, the party believes that the beautiful diversity prevailing for centuries is a boon to India, and, hence there is no need for the uniform civil code,” he added.
