Think & Discuss
Polygamy Laws and Tribal Exemptions: Uniform Civil Code Debate
Context from today’s quiz: The Assam Prohibition of Polygamy Bill, 2025 criminalises polygamy but specifically exempts Sixth Schedule areas and Scheduled Tribes. This reflects the tension between personal law reform and constitutional protections granted to tribal communities under Articles 244 and 371 series. Similar debates arise in discussions around a Uniform Civil Code (UCC).
🤔 Your Perspective Matters
India’s Constitution provides special protections for tribal areas and their customary laws. While progressive reforms like banning polygamy aim to ensure gender justice, blanket application may conflict with tribal traditions and constitutional guarantees. The Sixth Schedule protects autonomous governance for tribes in Assam, Meghalaya, Tripura, and Mizoram.
Should progressive social reforms like polygamy prohibition apply uniformly across all communities, or should tribal exemptions continue to respect constitutional protections and cultural autonomy?
Should progressive social reforms like polygamy prohibition apply uniformly across all communities, or should tribal exemptions continue to respect constitutional protections and cultural autonomy?
- How can gender justice be ensured in tribal communities while respecting their customary practices and autonomy?
- Does exempting certain groups from reform laws create inequality before the law, or does it uphold the spirit of federalism and diversity?
- What role should tribal women’s voices play in deciding whether such exemptions should continue?
