Uttarakhand Waqf Board proposes new nikahnama to align with UCC
Uttarakhand’s Waqf Board has suggested a revised nikahnama form to conform with the state’s Uniform Civil Code, effective since January 27, 2025. The new template eliminates sections that previously recorded second, third, or fourth marriages, limiting the document to a single marriage entry. Authorities claim it will streamline documentation.
