The Vishwa Hindu Parishad’s (VHP) legal cell passed a resolution against same-sex marriage saying the “tearing hurry” with which the Supreme Court is hearing petitions for legal recognition of such unions is not appropriate.
The legal cell of the Hindu outfit, in its annual meet attended by over 500 advocates and retired judges, on April 24 said the apex court should have sought the opinion of religious leaders and experts from diverse fields.
The VHP said it believes that there is no grave urgency to decide and determine the case related to same-sex marriage, when the country is still facing several other important issues in the socio-economic sphere.
