POV Concerns and Tone

I have put in the POV and tone tags in response to a scan of the last paragraphs of this article which show a suspected religious and political bias which is against NPOV policy. Statements such as

"As long as the Uniform Civil Code is pursued only by the BJP and its associates (RSS and VHP), the minorities—Muslims and Christians alike—will see it as Hindu law being stuffed down their throat. "

are deceptive in that the speak for large demographics with subjective language. Furthermore, these statements do not have an encyclopediac tone.

The page was written by someone who unfortunatley reveals his pan-islamist bias. Its neutrality should be verified

Re-writeup

I feel there is need to rewrite the lead and change layout of the article. Since I have no one to collaborate, I will be single handedly changing lead, replace news sources with journals & books and split/merge sections in a more efficient way. Any suggestions will be embraced. Aman Kumar Goel ^(Talk) 11:49, 22 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

What are the issues with the current lead and/or layout? -- Kautilya3 (talk) 10:24, 23 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

You can have a look yourself on write up. Write-up here, opening sentence initiates with "UCC is an ongoing point of debate" than definition & so for significant unsourced or in supported material throughout the article. Aman Kumar Goel ^(Talk) 08:18, 14 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]
