Uniform Civil Code: One nation, one law...and many worries
Not only the All India Muslim Personal Law Board but over 30 Adivasi organisations of Jharkhand have also opposed the latest push for the Uniform Civil Code after the 22nd Law Commission’s move for a fresh consultation on it. The Adivasi organisations argue that such a ‘uniform’ law would wipe out the tribal customs and practices constitutionally protected under the Fifth Schedule of the Constitution. The Adivasi communities living in the “Fifth Schedule areas” of central and eastern India are governed by the Chota Nagpur Tenancy Act, 1908 and the Santhal Parganas Tenancy Act, 1949 that give primacy to local customs when it comes to inheritance of land and property. Unlike the ‘Hindus’, the communities governed by these two laws are currently out of the ambit of the ‘Hindu Code’ – Hindu Succession Act, 1956, Hindu Marriage Act, 1955, Hindu Minority and Guardianship Act, 1956 and Hindu Adoptions and Maintenance Act, 1956 – unless the Union Government specifically make it applicable on any of them.
