Jammu and Kashmir National Conference President Farooq Abdullah says India should not push through with Uniform Civil Code and rethink the consequences of implementing it. 

Talking to media in Srinagar, Farooq Abdullah said India should rethink about Uniform Civil Code as people of different races and religions live in India and Muslims have their own shariah law.

His remarks come after Prime Minister Narendra Modi made a strong pitch for UCC and wondered how a country can function with dual laws that govern personal matters.
