STATEMENT OF OBJECTS AND REASONS The founding fathers of the Constitution while framing the Constitution of India have been instrumental in including uniform civil laws for all citizens throughout the country. It was therefore included as a Directive Principle of State Policy under article 44 which requires the State to secure for the citizens of India a Uniform Civil Code throughout the territory of India. However, even after sixty-six years of the framing of the Constitution, the Uniform Civil Code is yet to be enacted.

Discerning the Need for an Uniform Civil Code (UCC)
International Journal of Economic Research Volume 16 • Number 1 • 2019, ISSN 0972-9380 available at http: www.serialsjournal.com Discerning the Need for an Uniform Civil Code (UCC) G.S. Suvethan* , R. Niranjan** and Tejashwini Kuna*** *Email ID: [email protected] **Email ID: [email protected], Mount Carmel College (MCC) - III-Year BA.(P.E.S) ***Email ID: [email protected] Tamil Nadu Dr. Ambedkar Law University, School of Excellence In Law (SOEL) – III-Year B.com.,LLB (Hons) SALUS POPULI SUPREMA LEX ESTO Abtracts: “Let the good of the people be the supreme.” This paper focuses on how an Uniform Civil Code (UCC) can increase the possibility of a better nation. India is replete with a large number of religions and cultures enriching the diversity. These differnces have played a crucial role in effecting legal and judicial transformation, however certain religious squabbles across the spectrum of various scopes have tended to converge on different sets of conflicts , but continue to diverge in the name of religion which sometimes ameliorate modern India as well as drown her. Article 44 of the Indian Constitution as well as numerous judicial precedents formed in cases such as the Mohd. Ahmed Khan v. Shah Bano Begum 1, etc. considered by many as a pioneer judgement in India had revamped the entire situation. But on a broader perspective, what is the next change in the understanding of all religions? For this a clear cut research and definition of UCC and how it can be used while safe guarding all religions is the need of the hour. -

How Can Families Be Imagined Beyond Kinship and Marriage?
ISSN (Online) - 2349-8846 How Can Families be Imagined Beyond Kinship and Marriage? ARIJEET GHOSH DIKSHA SANYAL Arijeet Ghosh ([email protected]) is a project officer at Commonwealth Human Rights Initiative, New Delhi. Diksha Sanyal ([email protected]) is at School of Oriental and African Studies, London. Vol. 54, Issue No. 45, 16 Nov, 2019 The Transgender Persons (Protection of Rights) Bill, 2019 and the Surrogacy Regulation Bill, 2019 reinforce the idea of family as a patriarchal, heterosexual and casteist institution and fail to account for other models of "chosen families'"and intimacies that co-exist in India. Given that the Supreme Court has recognised the right to intimacy as a core component of autonomy and privacy, the article makes a case for the law to fundamentally rethink the way it regulates personal relationships and in doing so, adopt a more functional" approach. On 5 August 2019, the Lok Sabha passed the Transgender Persons (Protection of Rights) Bill, 2019 (hereinafter the transgender bill, 2019) and the Surrogacy (Regulation) Bill, 2019 (hereinafter the surrogacy bill, 2019) without due deliberations. These bills which reinforce patriarchal, heteronormative, and casteist values of the "great Indian family," if passed by the Rajya Sabha, could soon become a reality. In this piece, the authors critique the predominant understanding of the family inscribed in these bills as one based solely on marriage, blood, or adoption. The bills do not acknowledge other forms of chosen families and intimacies that coexist in the Indian society. Through an ISSN (Online) - 2349-8846 analysis of various existing judicial precedents and recently enacted laws, the authors argue that the legislature needs to rethink how the said laws regulate interpersonal relationships. -
Partnership in War on Terror and Mounting Militant Extremism in Pakistan
South Asian Studies A Research Journal of South Asian Studies Vol. 26, No. 2, July-December 2011, pp.227-239 Partnership in War on Terror and Mounting Militant Extremism in Pakistan Umbreen Javaid University of the Punjab, Lahore ABSTRACT Pakistan’s fight against extremism is not a success story, as extremism seems to be on rise leading to militancy, intolerance, ethnic division and sectarianism. This has become a daunting challenge for Pakistani government which has not been very successful in dealing with this challenge which has caused serious security concerns internally as well as externally. Certain decisions of the government have actually added fuel to extremism rather than lessening or controlling it, the decision to become a partner of USA in war on terror has led to immense increase in terrorist activities by the extremist elements, The war on Terror that started in 2001, a decade after the start of War and intense fighting, it is yet to be clearly established that it has helped Pakistan in achieving the objective for which she participated in the War. Pakistan entered as an ally and the frontline state in the name of national interest as determined by the decision makers at that time. It is argued quite forcefully that as terrorism mainly emanated from the religious extremism it was imperative to participate in the War on terror to curb extremism in the society however, no clear evidence is available after a decade of sustained losses of life and limb, property and resources that Pakistan has gained its objective or reached close to it. -
