To
the entire world we are known as hypocrites. A country where they will talk
about a lot of things, but when the time comes to take a stand over it, to
exercise those things then we always tend to back out. And to avoid it, we will
back it up by connecting the religious part of our culture and irrelevant
logics. Four years ago when the Delhi High Court passed its judgment over the
Gay Sex issue, by making it legal it certainly won people’s heart. But when
yesterday the Supreme Court changed the whole dynamics in the court of law by
decriminalization of Homosexuality, expected celebration turned into dejection.
Under the Act of 377, it is now a punishable offence, if offended by a person
of any age, religion; community will be proven guilty in the court of law and
will be given life sentence as its punishment.
They
quoted homosexuality as something which is inhuman
and unnatural. Now just tell me
one thing, who on earth are we to decide whether Homosexuality is an inhuman
and unnatural act or not? And if they have their right to question the creation
of God then where their conscience went when girls were being raped every now
and then, in the most inhuman and unnatural way? Who gave then the rights to
pass such kind of judgment that if any juvenile has been accused of rape
charges then it is not a punishable offence in the court of law?
Homosexuality
is not something which people chose after growing up; they are born in a
particular way which defines them. And if we call India as a democratic country
then in democracy no one has the right to question anyone with whom they want
to be with and with whom they want to have sex. It is a black era for democracy
(if at all that exist anymore). It’s an individual’s right according to the
constitution of India, which allows us to live freely in whichever way we want
and with whomsoever we want.
Having
said that, four years ago when Gay Sex was made legal, it opened up the doors for
medical science to explore a whole new level in their field, but after this judgment
given by the Supreme Court, it has not only abolished the Human Rights but also
it has closed the doors for the medical science to evolve beyond our
imagination. This has taken us 200 years back again. And if that’s the case
then tear apart the book of Kamasutra and demolish the temples of khujaraho
which depicts the same sex love as well. Till when we will shy away from such
issues which is life for over 7-8% of the country’s population. What is the
harm in giving them their rights to love and marry? If your son is gay then why
can’t you accept him in the way he is? After all he was born this way, what was
his mistake if he is a gay? Why we want them to be ashamed of themselves? Why we
want to make their life living hell? Why we want them to live their entire life
in a closet? Why can’t we think in a more matured way? Who is Supreme Court to
decide people’s personal choice???
If
a person is gay, put them in jail. But the people who all are eating our
nation, who all are corrupted can live freely. Obviously this has invoked a new
revolution, to stand united and fight against the rights of our friends. Lifetime
imprisonment for loving someone is not justified at any cost.
And as Pope
Francis has quoted, “if a person is gay and seeks God and has good will, who am I to judge
him?” How can you make this issue as a crime?
And
if we look at the history, evolution has been the major things happening around
in our world, in nature. If that would not have happened then no human race
would ever existed in this world because even we are evolved from Apes. Change is
the law of nature, to balance the world we have to change us with time. And this
is the time to appeal against the judgment of the Supreme Court, stand united
for their rights and bring a change in our society which let everyone live in
the way they want without any fear, harassment and violation of Human Rights. I
hope to see, the new world again. I hope to see Supreme Court taking its judgment
back. I hope to see when Homosexuality is not a crime anymore and it has been
accepted by every one of us. . I hope to see people of my country waking up
from their deepest of slumbers and act against what is going wrong. Because someday
we have to accept that it’s not in our hand to hold someone’s life and respect
the creation of nature.
I'm very shocked by the SC judgment.. it is utterly regressive... cannot believe we claim to be the superpower and still belive in 1st centurey so called values!
ReplyDeleteWhy would anyone have a problem for what happens behind the walls with consent?..
ReplyDeleteThere are rapes happening in almost every household where husbands force their wives to perform what wives don't want to but where is the court and where are the licensees of society and culture then?
India has the largest population of hypocrites...
