The Chief Justice of India, Hon'ble Dr. Justice D.Y. Chandrachud, made a significant statement on Tuesday during the hearing of a same-sex marriage case in the Supreme Court. He stated that there is no such thing as an absolute concept of biological man and woman.
A five-judge Constitution Bench, headed by CJI Chandrachud, is hearing the petitions seeking legal recognition for same-sex marriage.
Chief Justice of India (CJI) DY Chandrachud stated that the notion of a biological woman or man isn’t “absolute” and “it’s not just a question of what your genitals are.”
The CJI was responding to Solicitor General Tushar Mehta, appearing for the Government, who stated, “Societal acceptance of any relationship is never dependent on either the legislation or judgment. The legislative intent of the legislature throughout has been a relationship between a biological man and a biological female.” Mehta has also argued whether the judiciary is the right forum to create new socio-legal rights through marriage.
