I believe we spend a lot of time discussing irrelevant issues.
How does uniform civil code affect any thing else except play right into communal forces hands?
The founding fathers wanted a Indian where everyone co-exists. If that means a different set of laws (esp. if the laws does not affect any other sect/s) so be it.
For the politician this topic is a easy way to while away time without doing anything useful. He/she wins votes stay in power and does nothing useful. Any useful work (improving infrastructure etc.) takes a lot of effort and bring in results slowly. We (the voters) are playing right into their hands.
