After Goa, Uttarakhand could be the second and first state in recent past to reportedly implement Uniform Civil Code (UCC). The Uttarakhand Government had constituted an expert committee on the implementation of UCC and the committee held its last meeting recently. The committee is going to submit its report soon.
