A JUDICIAL RESPONSE OF APEX COURT IN RESPECT OF ADOPTION, MARRIAGE AND SUCCESSION OF LGBTQ+ GROUP: WITH SPECIAL REFERENCE TO RIGHTS TO PRIVACY

In 2018, the Indian Supreme Court decriminalized homosexuality and awarded LGBT+ Indians full citizenship under the constitution. In Indian courts, several applications for marital equality have now been submitted. Detractors have also underlined the significance of moving beyond legal inclusion to acknowledge varied families, pointing out that conventional approaches to LGBT+ equality ignore problematic family law systems. These justifications are not unique to India. LGBT+ activists disagree on the best way to exercise their rights within the current family law structures. The typical reaction is that integration into the current patriarchal social institutions precludes the possibility of significant change. LGBT+ rights demands have been satisfied. The present article deals with the problems faced by the LGBTQ+ community in the areas of adoption, marriage, and privacy in India.
