1. The issue, 'whether Section 377 of the Indian Penal Code is violative of Articles 21, 14 and 15 of the Constitution of India' was decided in which of the following cases?
Explanation
The 2009 case is a landmark one in which it was held that treating consensual homosexual sex between adults as a crime is a violation of fundamental rights protected by India's Constitution. This was later overturned by the Supreme Court of India in Suresh Kumar Koushal vs. Naz Foundation, in which a 2 judge bench reinstated Section 377 of the Indian Penal Code. However, even that was overturned by a 5 judge bench in Navtej Singh Johar v. Union of India in 2018, decriminalizing homosexuality once again.
Shreya Singhal case deals with freedom of speech, Visakha case deals with sexual harassment at workplace and the Shayara bano case is related to triple talaq.
