PNS/ DEHRADUN
In latest news from Doon, taking a swipe at the BJP on Uniform Civil Code (UCC) postponement, the State Congress spokesperson Garima Mehra Dasauni said that the State government had deliberately postponed its implementation in anticipation of its adverse impact on the Kedarnath bypoll slated on November 20.
She said that when asked to explain the postponement, the State BJP chief Mahendra Bhatt had cited non-completion of its regulation. “He seems ignoramus of the fact that the UCC panel has already handed over the UCC in its final form to the State government. So, it is clear that the BJP keeps deceiving people in the name of UCC with crores of rupees having gone down the drain in the name of constitution and continuance of the UCC panel,” she said.
Notably, the UCC was scheduled to be executed from November 9, marking the Uttarakhand State foundation day.
