I got interested in knowing how did fight being in India? I lately got an understanding of what was the origin.
The journey to this point as on 03 July 2009 started eight years ago when Naz, a non-profit group, filed the petition to read down Section 377. In 2004, the court dismissed the plea.
The fight for the cancellation of Section 377 kept moving with more and more people joining into this fight.
Though there were was a increase in number, the fact was that it was all in the shadow and nothing came in the light. I feel probably should have kept moving on… but it was lately in mid June 2009 that I hear a lot of rattling and noise about this fact. and finally on 03 July 2009 I hear that the worst of my dreams is now a reality. Again this is my view, there are thousands and lakhs of people around me that feel that this is an historic move, this is an experimental move, this is really good, finally i can say i am a gay… and so much more…. but what i feel is .. is this a short term joy to a long term suffering?
