Mishra’s tweet comes just days after Prime Minister Narendra Modi pitched for Uniform Civil Code (UCC), and said: “Today people are being instigated in the name of UCC. How can the country be run on two (laws)? The Constitution also talks of equal rights…Supreme Court has also asked to implement UCC.”

Modi’s statement drew flak from the Opposition parties, including the Congress, who accused him of resorting to “divisive politics” to divert attention from his government’s failure on many fronts.

On June 14, the 22nd Law Commission invited the views of the public and “recognised” religious organisations on the UCC within 30 days.
