Sources report that same-sex consensual relations were decriminalized in India in September 2018, when the Supreme Court declared that Section 377 of the Penal Code was unconstitutional (Freedom House 30 Jan. 2019; ILGA Mar. 2019, 187; Human Rights Watch 6 Sept. 2018). The Supreme Court decision in Navtej Singh Johar & Ors. versus Union of India was pronounced on 6 September 2018 (ILGA Mar. 2019, 142; India 2018a, 52). For further information on Section 377 of the Indian Penal Code, see Response to Information Request IND105380 of December 2015. The Indian press agency Press Trust of India (PTI) reported in April 2019 that the Supreme Court dismissed a review plea seeking various civil rights for the LGBTQ community: The plea had sought civil rights of the [LGBTQ] community as part of the basic human rights and said that these rights were not addressed in the apex court's judgement on Section 377 of the [penal code] which had criminalised consensual gay sex. It had sought recognition of their rights to same-sex marriages, adoption, surrogacy, IVF [in vitro fertilization] and directions so that the community can serve openly in the army, navy and air force.
