[Instant News/Comprehensive Report] The Supreme Court of India will consider the LGBTQ group's "demand for equality" petition on Monday (13th); however, the Indian government has recently stated that it will refuse to grant legal status to same-sex marriage in response to this review.

"Bloomberg" reported that the government of Prime Minister Narendra Modi stated that regardless of legal, religious and social aspects, only male and female marriages are acceptable.

The government also argues that any such departure from the accepted form of marriage should be approved by a vote in India's parliament, not by a court.

The government continued to point out that formally recognizing the legality of same-sex marriage will affect family issues such as child adoption and inheritance, and Congress must consider all possible changes to social views.

It is reported that in order to maintain the normative order of family and marriage, the government has formulated numerous and complicated laws and regulations.

The report mentioned that LGBTQ groups in India have been fighting for equal rights and have made progress. For example, the Supreme Court overturned the ruling that made sex between men illegal. However, the Indian government has a firm stance against same-sex marriage. The starting point is the concept, emphasizing that a family must be composed of "one husband, one wife and children", which cannot be achieved by same-sex couples.

The results of the Indian Supreme Court's deliberations on Monday have attracted the attention of many countries, such as Thailand, Japan and South Korea, and other countries are also discussing similar issues. Currently, only Taiwan in Asia recognizes same-sex marriage as legal.
