[Reader-list] universal civil code

[Rajendra Bhat Uppinangadi]

Light from the star, and all in the list,
 the following are the Acts which govern different citizens of the nation on
the basis of faith:-


   Hindu Succession Act,

  Hindu Marriage Act;

  Muslim marriage Act and Christian marriage act are no more in statute,
replaced by Special marriages Act, which covers registration aspects of
marriage so as to be the marriage is legally recognized between different
individuals of different faith, so also separation., rights of the
separated.

 Criminal procedure code is common to all citizens irrespective of their
faiths, civil procedure code for hindus and others is different as as per
muslim and christian weddings , they are marriage contracts solemnised by a
clergy.Here, please note, the marriage is a contract, with a nikah nama, /
 registered in church and hence divorce is within the the two contracted
persons to terminate as the procedure is available for such divorce.In
practise, the divorce is most misused weapon of the male dominated society,
is the truth.

Regards, Rajen.
