India's Supreme Court has refused to temporarily suspend a lower court's verdict legalising gay sex among consenting adults while it hears two petitions seeking to have the high court's decision overturned.
Homosexuality is a disease curable through yoga, says guru Baba Ramdev who has filed a Supreme Court appeal following the recent Delhi High Court judgment decriminalising sexual relationship between two consenting adults in private.
The Times of India – the world's largest-selling English broadsheet newspaper – and numerous other media outlets in the country hail the Delhi High Court's verdict which legalised sexual relations among gay men.
In a historic and eagerly anticipated judgment following an 8-year legal battle, the Delhi High Court on Thursday legalised gay sex among consenting adults by ruling in favour of a petition which sought a 'reading down' of Section 377 of the Indian Penal Code.
Vikram Doctor looks back at the struggles, considerations and strategies by the various NGOs involved with getting the petition written, filed and heard by the Delhi High Court after it was once thrown out on a technicality.
The Delhi High Court is due to deliver its much-awaited verdict on a petition seeking decriminalisation of same-sex relations at 10.30am IST (Indian Standard Time / GMT +5:30 hours).
The US is expected to sign the UN gay rights declaration sponsored by France and the Netherlands last year - making it the last Western nation to do so, says report.
More than half of the world's remaining "sodomy" laws - criminalising consensual homosexual conduct - are relics of British colonial rule. In 1860, British colonisers introduced a new criminal code including Section 377 to occupied India and other colonies.
I’m here for mutual understanding and shared desire.

Visiting United States, searching for a nice older man 60+ years old, for a serious relationship. I am educated, have a serious job, always attracted to professional elder men. For the right person, I'm open to relocating. Of course, the prerequisite is that we are truly in love; if so, I'd be willing to move to a new city and start a new career. Since I only speak Chinese, English, and German, my first choices would be English or German-speaking countries. Love life, I travel a lot for works and holidays. Also sharing my working life and holiday photos and videos by Facebook under same profile name: Chris Lam Thank you so much for your time!
