LGBTQ and their current legal position in India
LGBT rights in India
Lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender (LGBT) rights in India have been evolving rapidly in recent years. However, Indian LGBT citizens face social and legal difficulties not experienced by non-LGBT persons.
There are no legal restrictions against gay sex or gay expression. Gay couples have rights and benefits equal to married couples as live-in couples (analogous to cohabitation) as per a Supreme Court of India landmark decision in Deepika Singh v. Central Administrative Tribunal, which offers unregistered cohabitation for same-sex couples on par with heterosexual couples.[4][5]
The Transgender Persons (Protection of Rights) Act, 2019 recognizes the right to self-perceived gender identity and identification as male or female can be issued once a certificate is provided by a relevant medical official.[6] Transgender citizens have a constitutional right to register themselves under a third gender.[7]
Additionally, some states protect hijras, a traditional third gender population in South Asia through housing programmes, and offer welfare benefits, pension schemes, free operations in government hospitals as well as other programmes designed to assist them. There are approximately 480,000 transgender people in India as per Census 2011.[8][9][10]
Amidst strong political movements in favour of LGBT rights, people are more accepting of same-sex relationships, with around three out of four Indians supporting them according to an opinion poll.[11] In the 2010s, LGBT people in India increasingly gained tolerance and acceptance, especially in large cities.[12]
