    With reference to the Uniform Civil Code Bill recently passed by the Gujarat Legislative Assembly, consider the following statements:

    1. AOnly 1
    2. BOnly 2
    3. CBoth 1 and 2
    4. DNeither 1 nor 2
    Answer and explanation

    Correct answer: A

    Gujarat's UCC Bill makes registration of live-in relationships compulsory and fully exempts Scheduled Tribes, so statement 1 is correct. The Bill, modelled on Uttarakhand's UCC, retains a heteronormative framework and does not recognise same-sex marriages or civil unions, which makes statement 2 wrong.
