New Delhi: Union Law Minister Arjun Ram Meghwal has said Opposition-ruled states would be pressured by the public to implement the Uniform Civil Code (UCC), asserting that the idea has long enjoyed constitutional backing.
Speaking on the passage of UCC legislations in BJP-ruled Assam, Gujarat and Uttarakhand, Meghwal, in an interview to PTI Thursday, said it was a "good thing" that three states had already moved ahead and several others had formed committees to examine the issue.
