Allahabad HC Directs Reinstatement of Home Guard Sacked for Being Homosexual - (10 Feb 2021)

CIVIL

Allahabad High Court has directed reinstatement of a home guard who had been sacked on the charge of “indecency” on the basis of a video in which he was purportedly seen “displaying affection” to his same-sex partner. The Court has observed that any display of affection among members of the LGBT community towards their partners in public, so long as it does not amount to indecency or has the potential to disturb public order, cannot be bogged down by majority perception.
