For a long time, gay literature was used as an umbrella term for any LGBTQIA+ literature but the contribution of queer Indian writers to this discourse has immensely helped literature be more diverse and inclusive. These visionaries along with many people dauntlessly paved the way for queer exposure in pop culture. This is the reason why we can find amazing and diverse LGBTQIA+ representation in literature today across the globe!
