Marriage Equality and Inclusive Parenthood: A New Era of Human Rights
Year: 2024
Type: article
Abstract: The LGBTQ (Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender and Queer) community in India is still Dreams of marriage. December 28 is a Human Rights Day, commemorating the 1948 ratification of the Universal Declaration of Human rights (UDHR). LGBTQ adoption from a single parent is permitted by HAMA. However, adoption by a single parent has a number of legal ramifications. The other spouse in a same-sex relationship is essentially deprived of all legal rights over the child when a single parent adopts a child because the single parent is legally obligated to provide for the child's needs. The adoption regulations violate the Indian Constitution and are discriminatory against same-sex couples.
