  • LGBTQ-Marriage Rights
    26 | BnW Journal – Jurispedia – Vol. 1 : Issue 3 EQ. Citation: BNWJ-0920-099 2. LGBTQ-Marriage rights By: Shivani Singh Pg. No.: 26-44 27 | BnW Journal – Jurispedia – Vol. 1 : Issue 3 EQ. Citation: BNWJ-0920-099 Abstract The basic fundamental human right is to be regarded as equals and with respect irrespective of who or what one is. In 2018, Section 377 was partially struck down by a unanimous decision of the five-judge bench of the Supreme Court, it decriminalized homosexuality and was a noteworthy success for the LGBTQ community. But since gay marriage despite everything hasn't been legally recognized, this implies even in situations where there is social approval for it, these people keep on enduring discrimination on different fronts for example – adoption, bequest of property, tax planning, life insurance policies. There should be uniformity. Let others have indistinguishable rights from hetero couples. In heterosexual relationships, such rights and duties arrive in a bundle. While an LGBTQIA+ couple can freely address such issues, to date no laws are present in our nation that can guarantee their entrance to these rights. Moreover, even the Special Marriage Act does not have any provisions for heterosexual couples. It doesn’t even mention transgender people. Same-sex marriage has been sanctioned in twenty-eight nations, yet it stays prohibited in numerous nations and the growth of extensive LGBTQ+ privileges has been imbalanced worldwide. An individual’s sexual orientation is inherent to their existence. It is associated with their personality and identity. A category which differentiates between people based on their inborn nature, would not only be discriminatory but is also an infringement of their fundamental rights.
