Prashant Kishor asserts the Indian government needs Muslim consent for the Uniform Civil Code's success.

Jan Suraj chief Prashant Kishor stated that the Indian government cannot successfully implement the Uniform Civil Code (UCC) without the consent of the Muslim community, which comprises 20% of the population. He emphasized the necessity of consulting affected stakeholders, citing past protests against the Citizenship Amendment Act and the repeal of farm laws as examples. Kishor's comments follow Prime Minister Modi's call for a secular civil code to eliminate religion-based discrimination. The UCC aims to provide uniform personal laws for all citizens.
