ABSTRACT
India is a multicultural country that nests different groups of ethnicity and essentially nurtures different religions. While such diversity of India is often appreciated, it creates various problems about the personal law of different communities and therefore the human rights violation. The recent events of CAA or the Kashmir revocation essentially focus on the attacks of the Indian government upon the Muslim minority community and hence the question of codification of personal laws come to the surface. Even though the scope of personal laws is not guaranteed under the Part III of the Constitution of India, personal laws are adjudicated under Article 44 of the Constitution of India. In this research paper, we shall try to understand the connection between personal law and human rights and how the events of human rights violations in India can be structured better with codified personal laws.
Keywords:- CAA, Kashmir revocation, Article 44 of the Constitution of India, Human rights violations in India
