LGBTQ community supporters and members wait for the Supreme Court verdict on petitions that seek the legalization of same-sex marriage, in New Delhi, India, Tuesday, Oct. 17, 2023. According to a Pew survey, acceptance of homosexuality in India increased by 22 percentage points to 37% between 2013 and 2019. India’s top court refused to legalize same-sex marriages, with the chief justice of the country saying Tuesday that it was up to Parliament to create such a law.
The five-judge bench earlier this year heard 20 petitions that sought to legalize same-sex marriage in the world’s most populous country. “This court can’t make law. It can only interpret it and give effect to it,” the chief justice said, reiterating that it was up to Parliament to decide whether it could expand marriage laws to include queer unions.+ people in India have been expanding over the past decade, and most of these changes have come through the Supreme Court’s intervention.
