Delhi High Court To Hear Petitions Seeking Uniform Civil Code On December 1
NDTV
The high court was informed that in March, the top court refused to entertain pleas by Mr Upadhyay in respect of "gender neutral" and "religion neutral" laws as it observed that the matter fell in the legislative domain and that in 2015, he had even withdrawn a plea from there in relation to UCC.
The Delhi High Court has listed for hearing on December 1 a batch of petitions seeking a Uniform Civil Code (UCC) and observed that it "cannot do anything" if the issue has already been decided by the Supreme Court.
A bench headed by Acting Chief Justice Manmohan observed that in March, a top court bench had already declined a plea for "gender neutral" and "religion neutral" laws filed by lawyer Ashwini Kumar Upadhyay, one of the petitioners before the high court as well.
The court deferred further hearing on the petitions while noting that none appeared for the petitioners during the proceedings and Mr Upadhyay was yet to place on record his prayers in the petition before the Supreme Court.
