Delhi:The Supreme Court of India has upheld the section 377, which overturns the high court ruling of decriminalising gay sex. The gay community is very disappointed at this ruling and has got supporters from all quarters. Bollywood has extended its support on popular social media forum Twitter.
Many superstars tweeted:
I am ashamed. #377 there is nothing more frightening than the revelation that the guardians of democracy have turned undemocratic.

Just when we thought we r looking into d future, comes a judgement that treats us like we r in d stone age. The disappointment is justified.

What business does the government have in our bedrooms as long as the fundamental rights of others are not encroached upon?
