Lucknow, Oct 30 (PTI) Union Home Minister Amit Shah on Friday said the BJP would implement the Uniform Civil Code (UCC) in Uttar Pradesh, expressing confidence that the BJP would return to power in the state after assembly elections next year.
Addressing the party’s state working committee meeting here, Shah claimed that the Samajwadi Party would remain out of power in the state for 30 years.
“Akhilesh Babu, mark my words, your party will not form the government in Uttar Pradesh for the next 30 years. The people will not forgive even your third generation,” Shah said.
“This time, when the government comes to power, UCC will be implemented in Uttar Pradesh. UCC has already been implemented in many states,” he said.
The daylong meeting was kickstarted by Shah at the Dr Ram Manohar Lohia National Law University auditorium. It was chaired by BJP state president and Union Minister of State for Finance Pankaj Chaudhary.
