Union Law Minister Arjun Ram Meghwal on June 11 said the implementation of the Uniform Civil Code (UCC) was part of the Narendra Modi government’s agenda.
Assuming charge of office, a portfolio that he held in the earlier government as well, Mr. Meghwal rejected the charge that there was conflict between the executive and the judiciary, and expressed hope that a solution would be found on the issue of the Memorandum of Procedure (MoP).
The MoP refers to the procedure on the appointment, elevation and transfer of High Court and Supreme Court judges, which is yet to be finalised because of differences between the executive and the judiciary.
“I believe that we will certainly find a solution to it,” Mr. Meghwal told reporters after taking charge of the Ministry of Law and Justice.
Responding to a question on the implementation of the UCC, he said that it was part of the government’s agenda.
On the issue of ‘One Nation One Election’, Mr. Meghwal said the committee under former President Ram Nath Kovind had submitted its report, and the Law Commission was also working on the subject.
