&lt;p style=&quot;text-align:justify&quot;&gt;The memorandum, which has also been submitted to the the Governor of Uttar Pradesh; Chairperson, Rajya Sabha; Speaker, Lok Sabha; and to the Uttar Pradesh State Law Commission, has requested the President to declare the proposed Bill unconstitutional as it violates the right to equality guaranteed to all citizens of the country under Article 14 of the Constitution of India.&lt;/p&gt;
