The Big Picture : Section 377 Decriminalised

Celebrations broke out 6 September, 2018 as the LGBTQ community and others welcomed the Supreme Court judgment decriminalising consensual gay sex, asserting that the "historic" verdict granted them a basic human right but also acknowledging that complete equality was still some distance away. A five-judge Constitution bench of the Supreme Court unanimously decriminalised part of the 158-year-old colonial law under Section 377 of the IPC, which criminalises consensual unnatural sex, prompting joyous tears, hugs and dancing across the country. Activists, members of the LGBTQ community, authors and politicians welcomed the verdict -- which also said society cannot dictate a sexual relationship between consenting adults -- with many cutting cakes and unfurling the rainbow flag. On this edition of 'The Big Picture' we will analyse the verdict of the Supreme Court on Section 377.
Anchor- Frank Rausan Pereira

I really appreciate this aspect of his personality to quickly put water on sparks which potentially can be fire... His parents and friends and even Indian Media is so LUCKY to have such a wonderful anchor in our country... I see his name already in History books of our future...🙂

@rohitagarwal5427 6 жыл бұрын

Menaka Guruswamy is correct. Other panelists have not really read the judgement. Reading down of Sec 377 is much more than privacy issue. It's also about equality and making LGBTs equal citizens like others. A judge said, 'I am what I am and take me as I am'. He is taking about acceptance of variant sexual orientations of people. So it'd not just about sex which was criminalised. People also saw LGBT people through the lens of their sexuality. So this Judgement is much more than what other panelists are saying. (Rahul Easwar is a dumbo, forget about him)

The point of a debate is to have all views, opinions and aspects related to the verdict up for discussion. Not just about the verdict and its impact. I think Meneka Guruswamy needs to understand that whatever she had fought for over the years, is exactly what she is denying to other panelists- to be heard, to hold a variant opinion and to be tolerant.

Also, he point out it should be based on science and not constitutionality, did he know what he is talking about?!

Rahul easwar is very rightly quoting the real situation in society but...no one's taking him in the right way..... though court has' very rightly ' decriminalised section 377 , our society is still not accepting LGBTQ persons as normal and equal citizens......sc has done it's part....and now the ball is in our(society s) court...... and we have to work for....social acceptance of LGBTQ persons......but if we are approaching the society (with deeply ingrained traditional ethos) with arrogance.....then society will react....with more hatred towards LGBTQ Persons.....so we have to keep in mind all this 'ground situation' and will have to work accordingly......so that LGBTQ persons are gradually accepted by the whole society as equal citizens (which is their birth right) ......this is not end but just the beginning of the war....the war of us with deeply ingrained intolerance in ourselves.....so lets fight it out together.....to give our LGBTQ brothers and sisters the place of dignity in our society which they deserve very rightly 🙂 - Akshay ugale

If constitutional touchstones are put forward every now and then there are n number of cases which can be delivered in very short period....

The recent supreme court judgements expose the legislative lethargy in our democratic system. The naction of the parliament in such issues have forced the people to resort to judicial activism to get rid of ills of society. This could have been done by legislative action but politicians will play safe to vote banks and leave important legislative actions to the courts who are not bound by public opinion.
