Description
India's Prime Minister Narendra Modi pledges to introduce a new common civil code for the country at a manifesto launch for his ruling Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP), a week before a general election in the world's most populous nation. "We will also move forward with the initiative to support the idea of 'One Nation, One Election.' The BJP considers the Uniform Civil Code equally essential for the welfare of the nation," Modi says. Many analysts see Modi's re-election under his Hindu nationalist BJP banner as a foregone conclusion. IMAGES AND SOUNDBITES
