Personal Law Reforms and Gender Empowerment

Nandini Chavan (Author) Qutub Jehan Kidwal (Author)

Synopsis The basic objective of this book is to explore the possibilities of reform in Muslim Personal Law and Hindu Personal Law from women rights perspective. It is a long, complex discourse. But the key factor in the whole discourse is 'gender'. The issue of Uniform Civil code (UCC) is being hugely politicized and communalized by communal forces in the name of religion. But the endeavour here is to see the whole issue objectively through the lens of gender equality.
