Which state Legislative Assembly passed the Uniform Civil Code (UCC) Bill, 2026, on May 27, 2026, making it the third state in India after Uttarakhand and Gujarat to enact such legislation?
Assam
The Uniform Civil Code aims to provide a common set of civil laws governing personal matters such as marriage, divorce, and inheritance for all citizens, regardless of religion.
Uttarakhand and Gujarat had earlier moved to enact such legislation, and on May 27, 2026, the Assam Legislative Assembly passed its own Uniform Civil Code Bill, becoming the third state to do so.
Hence, the correct answer is Assam.
