  "summary": "Union Home Minister Amit Shah announced that the Uniform Civil Code (UCC) will be implemented in all NDA-ruled states before the 2029 Lok Sabha polls. The BJP-led government has previously promised to enforce the UCC, which would standardize legal frameworks on marriage, inheritance, and divorce for all citizens. However, tribal groups are exempted from the UCC to preserve their ethnic customs and traditions. Shah also discussed the National Register of Citizens (NRC) with stakeholders in Manipur, stating that the government is discussing the preparation of the NRC.",
