We must legally and formally recognize the notion of equal rights for LGBT community. It is argued that Right to Equality is already a fundamental right and no person can be discriminated on the basis of religion, race, caste and sex. The Delhi High court reasoned that the word “sex” in this article includes not just gender but also sexual orientation. Using this argument the High Court felt that Section 377 is discriminatory. so far as consensual adult sex is concerned.
