At the first look I didnt understand the intension behind this artical. Then again I reviewed the heading and now the thngs are very clear. This is the artical written by an unsecular Indian or among the persons those who like to divide INDIA on religious sects. First of all, Muslim persnal LAW is just an organization they are not the Decision makers. The Decision Makers are our Indian courts.. they are just helping Indian muslims to solve ther within community decisions according to ther religion. Here please be noted that "Within Muslim Community" such kind of laws and regulations does not effect on any HINDU brother. Still if any Hindu or Muslim or any INDIAN do have the problem with such laws mean He does want to disturb INDIAN secular power and like to divide country on religious sects. Why dont you undertand our enemies? The peoples who are finding enemies within the country are the agents of investigation organizations of other countires. The motive behind such aritcals are just to divide the country. We are united with our values and our values are what that our forfathers has given to us. Lets concentrate on IT and Technology. JAI HIND.. Non Residential Indian.

In which world is shahnawaz living? In all great democracies like the USA and the UK Muslims do not have separate set of laws; muslims there have no problem. When it comes to India, why are they not able to digest uniform civil law? It is incorrect and illogical to say that muslims have their own law within their community and that does not affect other religious groups. For example,when these people do not accept family planning and family size norms, it does affect the entire nation, which includes other religious groups. If muslims do not want uniform civil law, why should not they accept and voluntarily introduce their own criminal law which enjoins that any one stealing should have his arm cut off, indulging rape and adultery should be stoned to death publicly, etc.?

I disagree that the writer is non-secular etc. If India is a true secular country, it should not have two laws. Respecting the cultural and social habbits is one thing. Making the courts to follow their personal religous text to decide a case because the person belongs to specific religion is non-secular. America has one law. It does not go through a Hindu or a Muslim scripture for administering justice. India does not do it. The writer is not dividing the nation. In fact he is finding ways to unite under one law.
