GROSS INDECENCY Back in September many Western leaders, Human Rights advocates, and Indian LGBT citizens celebrated the decriminalization of gay sex on the sub-continent.
India was lauded for adopting Western ideals of liberalism.
But noted historian Harbans Mukhia says one has to know India’s history to understand that anti-LGBT sentiment and laws outlawing homosexuality and that made it a criminal act came from the British. “The British brought their own rules to India, including Section 377 which banned homosexuality and made it a criminal act. This law was enforced by them but it didn’t conform with India’s attitude toward homosexuality. It was more to do with their Christian belief systems,” he said.
Mukhia added that the court’s decision has taken India back to its traditional roots and values.
