The Rajasthan government has constituted a high-level committee to draft a Rajasthan Uniform Civil Code, to be headed by former Supreme Court Justice Ranjana Prakash Desai.
The state cabinet approved the formation of the panel, tasking it with preparing the draft of the Rajasthan Uniform Civil Code 2026.
A Uniform Civil Code seeks to replace personal laws based on religious customs with a common set of rules governing matters such as marriage, divorce and inheritance. The move places Rajasthan among the states pursuing such a framework at the regional level.
