Uttarakhand introduces online registration for live-in couples under the Uniform Civil Code, acknowledging modern relationships. Spearheaded by a dedicated committee, the initiative aims to provide a legal framework. The legislation is not intended to discourage live-in relationships but to ensure inclusivity and uniformity in civil laws across the state. The UCC also outlines penalties and procedures for violators, grants maintenance rights to women partners, and provides a clear procedure for terminating live-in relationships.
