A right-wing Hindu group in India has congratulated the Supreme Court for its “historic”, decision to reinstate a ban on gay sex.
The Vishwa Hindu Parishad (VHP), congratulated the decision of the Supreme court to last week reinstate Section 377 of the Indian Penal Code which bans gay sex.
VHP went on to call homosexuality as an “imported disease”, saying it needed treatment.
A message was sent to President Pranab Mukherjee and Prime Minister Manmohan Singh, saying the government should also ban alcohol and make moral education mandatory, saying homosexuality was “against Indian culture and values.”
