Talk:Recognition of same-sex unions in India

Source đź“ť

1878:"On the other side there's nothing special about marriages in a country where cohabitation and unwritten common law provides all the rights and benefits are homosexual couple would need (and remember there might be family tax breaks etc... aimed at married heterosexual couples that may not be required for homosexual couples)." Unfortunately, my question remains unanswered. What are these rights? Okay, family tax breaks. Do we have sources that these have been granted to same-sex couples? I do not dispute the fact live-in relationships may provide legal rights to different-sex couples, but sources confirming that same-sex couples enjoy these rights too are seriously lacking. We need these sources before claiming without evidence that same-sex couples have "legal recognition". Readers may incorrectly assume by reading the lead that same-sex couples enjoy some married rights akin to civil unions or partnerships when this is completely false. The couples in the 1785:
regardless". It seems live-in couples still have no rights to inherit, adopt, be protected from domestic violence, etc. Couples are "also entitled to legal recognition and protection." What does "protection" mean ? What benefits does "recognition" entail ? The first sentence of the lead: "India provides some legal recognition of homosexual partnerships as live-in relationships." thus seems very false. My understanding is that live-in relationships provide zero legal recognition and rights. If they did, why would couples have even gone to the Supreme Court to request (secular) marriage rights then ?
1886:"Before the supreme court ruling, there were also other rulings that provided some rights to homosexual live-in couples, so the text can still stand:" My understanding is that these were decided on an individual, case-by-case basis, and may not be applicable for all couples. And again, what rights did these rulings even provide? The rulings were very limited in scope, and not always decided positively for same-sex couples. In Uttarakhand for instance, one court dismissed one such case taking into account the opinion of the family members of one of the partners. 1812:
common law provides all the rights and benefits are homosexual couple would need (and remember there might be family tax breaks etc... aimed at married heterosexual couples that may not be required for homosexual couples). The fact is that the Supreme Court "recognised" live-in relationships even if the provisions provided to heterosexual couples and homosexual couples are different (and that should not inherently matter in a religion with multiple concepts of marriage and a country with numerous more).

sources. Based on the lead of this article at it is now, most readers will assume same-sex couples enjoy legal rights and benefits akin to civil partnerships. This is completely false. I was of the opinion that Knowledge (XXG) was supposed to be factual, not claim something without a single secondary source. Not the mention, the SMA provides for "secular marriage" in India. Are we to ignore that? Or are couples who marry under the SMA too "American"?
71: 53: 81: 1708:
live-in relationships are essentially purely symbolic, and this needs to be made clear. I don’t quite understood how mentioning partnership certificates is in any way noteworthy here. It’s a purely Japanese institution, not to mention not legally binding and likewise mostly symbolic. I’m also afraid you are "overcharging" the lead. I think most of this should be moved to designated subsections.
249: 22: 171: 143: 157: 397:(or maybe vice versa). At any rate, the lead was synthesis as "In recent years, Hindu-based same-sex marriage ceremonies have become even more prevalent" needs more than 1 source talking about the issue, likewise widely conservative. As for the legal validity, who cites this? can we see a reading of the text? The taboo part might hold water but what is the quality of the source? 2004:
relationship as live-in relation couples. It is not specific how these various rights and benefits are applicable to same-sex couples, because for them, live-in relationships are the only type of union recognised by law to some extent." Welp, that’s not convincing. It goes on to state individual case-by-case court decisions, which may or may not be applicable to other couples.

system and the European style cohabitation system. What this article really lacks is a truly Indian view on marriage and LGBTQ marriage, and about how same-sex relationships can be recognised beyond providing marriage (which is what the partnership certificate is about). NPOV requires you to refrain from pushing secular marriage as the only option forward.

physical and sexual violence against queer Indians that normalises such violence for queer Indians. Indian queer women have been reported to face endemic and pervasive nature of violence, such as psychological and verbal abuse, bodily harm, forced marriage, wrongful confinement, medical abuse and corrective rape.
648:. The reasoning is as follows: "shows that same-sex marriage has been a more mainstream and predominant topic. Although marriages indeed lack legal recognition, they play an important role in shaping public perception of same-sex marriage and as such I believe deserve to be noted here" (See Page Revision history) 1913:
I posted three links above that showed legal interpretation of certain rights and benefits being provided to those in live-in relationships. Even if limited or minimal, there are rights and most importantly they are recognition. If you believe in word for word equality on every form of marriage, then

In 1987, Lila Namdeo and Urmila Srivastava, two policewomen from the state of Madhya Pradesh got "married" through a Hindu wedding ceremony.
