India’s Supreme Court struck down a 157-year-old colonial-era law, “Section 377,” that criminalized all sexual activity apart from heterosexual sex as “against the order of nature” on Thursday. The judges delivered a unanimous verdict, describing Section 377 as “arbitrary” and said that freedom could only be fulfilled where the LGBT community possesses equal rights. The ruling also included a requirement for police “sensitization” to prevent discrimination against LGBT individuals 🇮🇳🌈 (📷: Getty, Reuters, AP) - #section377 #lgbt #lgbtq #lesbian #gay #bisexual #transgender #queer #lovewins #loveislove #gaysex #pride #equality #indianpride #newdelhi #india #indian
