“…Nonetheless, these legal crossroads remain particularly significant-as Bose (2014) reminds us-in fixing a timeline for the history of LGBTQ+ intimate practices and political struggles in India.

There is a demand for ending discriminatory policies against LGBTQIA+ individuals and bringing a ban on the notorious conversion therapy, "an umbrella term to describe interventions of a wide-ranging nature, all of which are premised on the belief that a person's sexual orientation and gender identity, including gender expression, can and should be changed or suppressed when they do not fall under a so-called 'desirable norm'" [8].…”
