Former High Court judge R. C. Chavan resigns from the Maharashtra Uniform Civil Code (UCC) panel. Multiple reports say he steps down from the body on September 19.

Both outlets link the resignation to his stated concerns about the process. The Times of India adds that Chavan flags procedural issues, while The Hindu focuses on the fact and date of his resignation from the panel. The reporting does not include further detail on the specific procedures he contests or how his departure affects the panel’s ongoing work. No alternative candidates or interim arrangements are described in the sources provided.
