At 11:45 am, September 6 ,2018 the history recorded its prettiest rainbow and the world acknowledged the applause of a new rising dawn. I’m sure all of you have heard the most breathtaking and humane news of this year that LGBT rights have been approved by the Supreme Court. Every year LGBT Pride Month is celebrated in June, with a series of events and parades taking place in the United States. What a great pleasure to tribute the freedom and joy of being who you are regardless of your sexual orientation.Today the air is fueled with pride and excruciating blossom of Spring in the month of September for the LGBTs in India. One could never imagine this day would visit our doorsteps so fast even when the history had proclaimed all these years a slow process of amending laws. The promises and the prayers of this wonderful part of our community has finally been answered. Once again it is proved that love is so pure that there are no boundaries on the basis of gender. It views equality granting them the privileges like every human has the rights to get. As soon as the Supreme court legalized homosexuality and partially decriminalized Section 377 of the Indian Penal Code(IPC) , gay rights activists from all over the India started celebrating it. Campaigns and uproars of people were witnessed in the streets of Delhi and other cities. “History owes apology to the LGBT”,says Supreme court. Section 377 referred to the” unnatural offences” and says whoever voluntarily has gay sex shall be punished up to 10 years in jail under the 1861 law. This law has been discarded into dust and smoke and a 158 year old colonial law on homosexual sex is banished from the country granting fundamental rights to them. The Supreme court reversed its own decision and said Section 377 is irrational and arbitrary. With this the most astonishing newsletter reached the nation spreading smiles worldwide.
