* The usage of UCC is not consistent. Why is UCC explained near the bottom of the article? Please shift it to the lead.
I will come back to the lead after we get through the body. Please make sure it follows [[WP:MOSLEAD]]. [[User:DiplomatTesterMan|DTM]] ([[User talk:DiplomatTesterMan|talk]]) 10:33, 12 October 2020 (UTC)
;British India (1858–1947)
* The first paragraph does not have a citation.
* Please make the page numbers more precise — For "Anil Chandra Banerjee (1984). English Law in India" shouldn't page number 133 also be referenced?
;Legislative reforms
*{{tq|The law discriminated}} — can we be a bit more specific here. Which law? Laws in general? etc The next sentence mentions "Hindu", are we just talking about Hindus here. Please let the reader know that before and not after.
*{{tq|which was also one of the first laws to ensure women's economic security}} — one of the first laws in the world or in the Indian subcontinent?
*{{tq|There were law reforms passed which were beneficial to women}} — another general statement. The laws mentioned in front seem to only cater to Hindu women. Please specify this.
*[[Lakshmi N. Menon]] — this seems like an important name to link. Please link it if it refers to the person in question.
*{{tq|The passing of the Hindu Women's right to Property Act of 1937, [...] its report to the Indian Parliament in 1947.}} Please copyedit this paragraph.
*The last paragraph deals with the {{tq|Special Marriage Act [...] first enacted in 1872}} and the {{tq|Special Marriage (Amendment) Act, 1923}}. Why is this last? Arent't we going roughly chronologically? Couldn't it be placed before the paragraph mentioning the {{tq|AIWC conference in 1933}}?
;Hindu Code Bill and addition to the Directive Principles
* Citations 18 and 19 (following the line {{tq|Ambedkar recommended the adoption of a Uniform Civil Code}}) are not formatted with correct detailing.
* Citation 18, "Ambedkar And The Uniform Civil Code" by [[Christophe Jaffrelot]], says {{tq|Considering that he had not been supported enough by the Prime Minister, Ambedkar sent him his letter of resignation from his government on 27 September.}} This seems important, that the attempt to pass the civil code led to the resignation of Ambedkar. Ambedkar resigned in 1951. The last paragraph says {{tq|Thus, a lesser version of this bill was passed by the parliament in 1956 [...] It was decided to add the implementation of a uniform civil code in Article 44 of the Directive principles of the Constitution specifying, "The State shall endeavour to secure for citizens a uniform civil code throughout the territory of India."}} So this directive was added after Ambedkar resigned as law minister and there was a new law minister? Please see if this needs to be clarified ''in short'' inline.
* Citation 22, the citation following {{tq| [...] specifying, "The State shall endeavour to secure for citizens a uniform civil code throughout the territory of India."}}; please add citation detailing.
* Please add a one word or short inline description of who she is if possible — Aparna Mahanta.
