Justice Shekhar Yadav, a judge at the Allahabad High Court, made controversial remarks at a Vishwa Hindu Parishad (VHP) event. He criticized practices such as quadruple marriage, Halala, and triple talaq, and advocated for the implementation of a Uniform Civil Code (UCC). Justice Yadav emphasized that having different laws for different communities poses a danger to national unity. He stated that practices like having multiple wives, performing Halala, and practicing triple talaq are unacceptable and disrespectful to women, who are revered in Hindu scriptures.
The Supreme Court has taken note of these remarks and requested a detailed report from the Allahabad High Court. This development follows objections raised by some legal bodies and individuals, who argue that Justice Yadav’s comments were communal and derogatory towards the Muslim community
