The Opposition Congress in Rajasthan on Wednesday took exception to a series of public consultations on Uniform Civil Code (UCC) being organised by the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) government in the State without the release of draft legislation in the public domain. Rajasthan is the fifth BJP-ruled State to initiate action for enactment of UCC.
