" Triple Talaq is a social problem, it would be good if Muslim society itself resolves it," Adityanath said in an interview.

He also said that the difference in male - female sex ratio has to be reduced. Muslim women have to come forward for their rights, he added.

He further said that there were some recommendations of the Central Waqf Board which have to be and are being implemented.

"There were some recommendations of the Central Waqf Board which were implemented," he said.

Adityanath said he was satisfied with the work done by his government in the first 100 days.

He said his government would continue to work for all sections of society without discrimination.

"We are satisfied with the work we have done in the first 100 days of our government, but 100 days is little for change or development in any state. We want to assure people that the government has started initiatives to take Uttar Pradesh forward on path of development," Adityanath said.

He accepted Uttar Pradesh was ravaged by nepotism and castism and expressed the hope that his government would change the dynamics in the state.

He praised for government's initiatives to start the anti-Romeo squads for better women security and for waiving off farmers loans as one of significance.

He said around 86 lakh farmers have benefitted with the waiver.

"Waving off farmer loans will not affect developmental works in the state. Loans worth Rs. 22,000 crore were waived off for sugarcane farmers. It's our aim to protect farmers. We're buying five times more wheat from them," he said.

Pledging to achieve open defecation free status in the state, he said that every household in the state would have a toilet by 2018.

Adityanath further said that his government has asked the Centre to provide 24-hour power supply all villages in the state.

The 44-year-old chief minister had taken oath with two deputies and 44 other ministers on March 19 after the BJP won 325 out of 403 state assembly seats.

"The state government will to go to any extent and continue its fight against CAA. This Act destroys democracy in the country. This will only help in implementing the RSS agenda, to drive the nation through a fascist regime, and destroying the secularism and democracy in the country. The RSS and the Sangh Parivar cannot implement this law just by using muscle power," Jayarajan said.

Tourism Minister Kadakampally Surendran tweeted that the state became the first in the country to approach the top court against the Act. "Kerala government files lawsuit against the unconstitutional CAA. Kerala becomes the first state in the country to go to the Supreme Court against CAA.

"Kerala leads the way," he said in the tweet. In a suit filed in the apex court, the Kerala government has sought to declare that the CAA 2019 was "violative" of Article 14 (Equality before law), 21 (Protection of life and personal liberty) and 25 (Freedom of conscience and free profession, practice, and propagation of religion) of the Constitution.

It also claimed that the law was violative of the basic principle of secularism enshrined in it. The state Assembly had on December 31, 2019, passed a unanimous resolution against the CAA and became the first state to do it.
