Moot Proposition 4
I LLB
Westeros is a sovereign, socialist, secular, democratic republic. Its political system is
quasi-federal in nature and it also is the world’s largest democracy. Due to a bloody partition
after two centuries of colonial rule, the pluralistic society of Westeros has had a spate of
communal tensions.
Framers of the Westerosi Constitution envisaged the implementation of a Uniform Civil Code
(UCC) at a later date to regulate matters related to marriage, divorce, succession, inheritance,
adoption, maintenance etc. (personal matters). But, its parliament had not framed a law
relating to the same.
One of its states, Northanchal recently enacted a UCC for implementation within its territorial
jurisdiction. Many criticised it as an attack on personal laws which are based on religious
guidelines. These protesters, under the aegis of “Secular Wing”, a citizen organisation, have
filed a writ petition against the Northanchal State in the High Court of Northanchal at
Winterfell.
