India's top court legalizes gay sex in landmark ruling

On Thursday, the Supreme Court of India rejected groundbreaking decisions that activists wanted the bill to maintain equal rights, while colonialism prohibited homosexuality.

Many believe that homosexuality is contraindicated in socially conservative India After four years of non-criminalization it revived in 2013.

Mr. Minnaksi Gangli, director of Human Rights Watch South Asia, said at Twitter as follows.

Mr. Akhelesh Godi, one of the petitioner, said that just before the ruling was announced, "This is not just criminalization but about our basic rights."

The law known as "Article 377" prohibits "physical mating with the natural order of any male, female or animal" - it is widely interpreted as referring to homosexual acts

In the groundbreaking case of Obergefell v. Hodges in 2015, the US Supreme Court ruled that all countries prohibiting gay marriage are unconstitutional and gay marriage is legalized throughout the United States . This sentence is the result of decades of struggles, frustration and victory in the universal marriage path in the United States. When the couple again appealed, the US Supreme Court rejected the trial of the case in 1972 "due to the lack of substantive federal problems". This ruling effectively prevented the federal court from making a judgment on same-sex marriage for decades. The state you have in hand gives a blow to those who want to see legitimization of same-sex marriage.

On June 26, 2015, the US Supreme Court issued a landmark ruling to grant a constitutional right to a homosexual couple and get married. The decision of 5-4 at Obergefell v Hodges brought the legalization of homosexual marriage nationwide, including 14 states that had not previously allowed gay and lesbian marriages. The judgment is partly dependent on the interpretation of the 14th amendment by the court and the judge judged that the marriage of homosexual couples violated only the protection of equal protection of the law.

On June 26, 2015, the Supreme Court ruled a groundbreaking decision, the Constitution declared to guarantee the freedom of marriage of homosexual couples. In the case of groundbreaking achievements of gays' rights movement Obergefell v. Hodges, who began to appeal for homosexual couples in Ohio, Michigan, Kentucky, and Tennessee states that their province banned gay marriage is unconstitutional It was declared. In a decision reflecting the court's ruling against Virginia in 1967, the bill abolished state law prohibiting marriage between races, judge Anthony Kennedy said that freedom of marriage was the most personal guarantee under the 14th amendment It was declared. One of the fundamental freedoms, like a heterosexual couple, also applies to same-sex couples. Kennedy wrote as follows. "They demand equal dignity in the legal view." "The Constitution gives them rights."
