The special date 11-12-13 was waiting a historic reform in India. But did it happen? May be yes, may be no!
Today Supreme Court Of India pronounced its verdict about "Homosexuality" in India. 
The court has ruled that gay sex is a criminal offenseThe Court today said  that statute - Section 377 of the Indian Penal Code - which outlaws sex "against the order of nature" is constitutionally valid. Conviction carries a fine and a maximum 10-year jail sentence.
