There was an indistinct silence in the air today, people waited to spread love and accept it in all forms; all eyes on the apex court to announce it’s verdict on #Section377. And it’s here, Finally! The Supreme Court today partially struck down Section 377 which criminalises homosexuality. And these Section 377 tweets show just how proud and happy India is today.
The Union Government was also directed to cover the judgment actively and accurately making it reach to a wider audience. For the unknown, Section 377 reads as:
Whoever voluntarily has carnal intercourse against the order of nature with any man, woman or animal shall be punished with imprisonment for life, or with imprisonment of either description for a term which may extend to ten years, and shall also be liable to fine.
Chief Justice of India in unison with all the 5 members of the bench stated that - the LGBT community possesses rights like others. Majoritarian views and popular morality cannot dictate constitutional rights. Sexual orientation is biological, innate. She or he has no control over who they get attracted to. Any repression will be a violation of free expression: Supreme Court.
Now this is what we call SAVAGE.
As Section 377, sans doubt, trends everywhere in India today-we get hold of some tweets sending love all over.
Meanwhile, Congress took this as an opportunity to dig at the ruling and rival party.
Equality prevails and we could not be happier! If this doesn't give you goosebumps, we don't know what will.
