Govt Does Not Have Data To Prove Gay Marriage Is Urban-Elitist Concept, Says Supreme Court

The Supreme Court on Wednesday dismissed claims by the Central government that same-sex marriage and queer rights are "urban elitist concepts". The remarks were in response to the Central government’s submission that the petitions representing those seeking recognition of same-sex marriages are urban elitist views. The Constitution Bench, comprising Justices Sanjay Kishan Kaul, S Ravindra Bhat, PS Narasimha, Hima Kohli, and CJI Chandrachud, was hearing a batch of petitions seeking legal recognition of same-sex marriages in India. In an affidavit filed before the Supreme Court, the government claimed that same-sex couples living together as partners and having a sexual relationship is not the same as the concept of Indian family unit.
