Abstract

This commentary examines the constitutional debate surrounding the recognition of same-sex marriage in India. It explores the relationship between fundamental rights, equality, non-discrimination and individual dignity, while analysing the judiciary’s role in balancing individual rights and group interests within a constitutional democracy. The article reflects on the constitutional questions raised during the Supreme Court’s hearing on same-sex marriage and the broader implications for citizenship, equality and LGBTQIA+ rights in India.
