The idea Uniform Civil Code refers to the common set of secular civil laws which will govern all citizens of India with no consideration of their Religion, Caste, language or tribe. India has a common code for laws related to contract, transfer of property, penal laws and other civil laws which are independent of religion. The further areas of laws which will be governed under it are the Personal Laws related to Adoption and maintenance, Marriage, Divorce, and Inheritance and acquisition and Administration of property. The mandate of article 44 of DPSP directs the state to make a Uniform Civil Code. This research paper is the result of the questions emerged in the debate of Uniform Civil Code. The analysis is with respect to the present condition of the communities at grassroots level vis-à-vis the need for the hour. The paper questions the concept of unified civil code being propagated and also till what extent is it feasible for the Indian population. This paper majorly focuses on the drawbacks of such code with analyzing UCC of Goa and also discuss options available other than this utopian idea of a single code.
