Uniform Civil Code (UCC) also known as “One Nation-One Law” aims to formulate and implement a uniform personal law for all Indian citizens regardless of their religion, faith and gender. Personal laws are “law pertaining to family and culture from birth to death.” In India, an array of personal law exists and there is no uniformity between them, different faith different laws. This gave rise to a demand for Uniform Civil Code to have one set of secular laws. Unifying personal laws will simplify the Indian legal system and make the judicial system more efficient and reduce the burden of multiple laws. The concept of Uniform Civil Code finds its roots in Article 44 of the Indian Constitution. This Article though not legally enforceable but guide the State towards promoting national integration and uniformity. The Supreme Court of India has always been an ardent supporter of the Uniform Civil Code. However, the implementation of Uniform Civil Code remains a highly debated topic. The Uniform Civil Code is not an enigma to be resolved in isolation. The research paper is purely doctrinal and aims to provide an in-depth understand on the concept of Uniform Civil Code, its constitutionals perspective, judicial approaches, challenges, and pros and cons of Uniform Civil Code.
