Sharing his reaction on social media, the Chief Minister said the legislation marks a significant step towards ensuring justice and empowerment for women in the state.

“I thank all NDA legislators who have voted for the passage of the historic #UCCAssam Bill. Under the leadership of Prime Minister Narendra Modi ji, we remain committed to ensure justice to Assam's Nari Shakti,” Sarma posted.
