Why we need uniform civil code?

Uniform Civil Code will provide women with the right to equality and justice in courts of law- irrespective of their religion in matters pertaining to marriage, divorce, maintenance, custody of children, inheritance rights, adoption, etc.

Meaning of uniform civil code:-   

      Uniform civil code is the proposal to replace the personal laws based on the scriptures and customs of each major religious community in India with a common set governing every citizen. These laws are distinguished from public law and cover marriage, divorce, inheritance, adoption and maintenance.

Uniform code necessary:- 

  The arguments for it are its mention in Article 44 of the Constitution, the need for strengthening the unity and integrity of the country, rejection of different laws for different communities, the importance of gender equality and reforming the archaic personal laws of Muslims—which allow unilateral divorce and polygamy.
