 The Delhi High court, today gave an historic judgment on the article 377 related with homosexuality. In its sensational judgment it favored the Homos saying criminalization against them is nothing but violating their fundamental rights. The court declared that IPC section of 377 violates the article 14, 15, and 21 which are meant for fundamental rights of Indian citizens. Delivering its 105 page judgment the court says, "In our view Indian Constitutional law does not permit the statutory criminal law to be held captive by the popular misconception of who the LGBTs (lesbian gay bisexual transgender) are. It cannot be forgotten that discrimination is antithesis of equality and that it is the recognition of equality which will foster dignity of every individual,” However, the court will hold its judgment till the Parliament makes an appropriate amendment to the section 377.
