Supreme Court Verdict On Same Sex Marriages

Supreme Court refuses to recognise same-sex marriage, says it is for the legislature to do.

The five-judge constitution bench comprises the CJI and Justices Sanjay Kishan Kaul, S Ravindra Bhat, Hima Kohli and P S Narasimha.

Besides the CJI, Justice Kaul, Justice Bhat and Justice Narasimha have penned separate verdicts.

This court can't make law and it can only interpret it and give effect to it, he said, adding “homosexuality or queerness is not an urban concept or restricted to upper class of society”.
