Declare live-in relationship or face up to 6 months jail
Individuals who are in or plan to establish live-in relationships should register under Uttarakhand's Uniform Civil Code (UCC) once it becomes legislation. Those who do not follow the regulations would face up to six months in prison, a Rs 25,000 fine, or both.
A bill on the UCC, which proposes universal marriage, divorce, land, property, and inheritance rules for all residents, regardless of faith, was introduced in the uttarakhand legislature earlier today, amid cries of "Jai Shri Ram" and "Vande Mataram".
According to the proposed law, those under the age of 21 must get parental approval and submit a declaration to the Registrar indicating whether or not they are residents of Uttarakhand.
