Guwahati, May 27 -- Following the introduction of the Uniform Civil Code (UCC) Bill in the Assam Assembly, the legislation sparked sharp political reactions, highlighting a clear divide between the ruling NDA and Opposition parties over the proposed law.

Speaking to ANI, BJP MLA Diganta Kalita praised the government for fulfilling a key election promise and described the move as historic.

"Our Chief Minister, Mr Himanta Biswa Sarma, stated previously that if we were to return to power, the implementation of the UCC would be our top priority. Today marks a truly significant--indeed, a momentous--occasion for us. This day will go down in the history of the 16th Assam Legislative Assembly," Kalita said.
