Muslim groups to unite against uniform code

Muslim leaders representing various sects, schools of thoughts, organisations and political parties, joined hands to express their opposition to Uniform Civil Code.

“The uniform civil code is not acceptable under any circumstances. We will not tolerate any kind of intrusion in the Muslim personal law and we will do everything to fight against interference in Shariat,” said Tahreek Muslim Shabban president Mohammed Mushtaq Mallik, while addressing the first meeting of reception committee for all India Tahafuz-e-Shariyat conference.

The meeting witnessed the participation of nearly 200 Muslim leaders, including those from different districts of Telangana.

All the leaders condemned the  government for asking the law commission to examine the possibilities of introducing uniform civil code (UCC).
