NO TO “GAY HO”

NO TO “GAY HO”

3rd July 2009, Mumbai.

Just after a day, Students protested against the Delhi High court ruling decriminalizing Homosexuality on Friday at Azad Maidan, Mumbai. Students Islamic Organization of India, a Pan India student’s organization, rejected any changes or dilution in the Section 377, criminalizing homosexuality. Several students holding the ply cards in their hands with slogans like “ God made Adam & eve, not Adam and Steve” , “ Human rights are bound by Human Dignity”, “ Support Gays to promote AIDS” etc. agitated and demanded that the central government should stick to article 377 and must challenge the recent high court verdict in Supreme court.

Homosexuality is a psychological disorder and a major cause of AIDS opined Mr. Kamran Baig , an engineering student. He also quoted the Data from a 2005 study by the Center for Disease Control of USA which observed that 71% of all HIV infections among male adults were Gay.

Today on the argument of human rights homosexuality is legalized, tomorrow on the same argument we will have to legalize child sex lovers, animal sex lovers, drug addicts etc suggested Waheed Shaikh, an agitator.

National president of SIO of India Suhail KK concluded in his press statement “GAY and LESBAINISM are against basic humanitarian values and against the social fabric of a civilized society. No person is born homosexual just like no one is born a thief liar or murderer. These evil habits are acquired from surroundings. The agenda of homosexuals is just to universalize their behavior and make the notion that it is normal. It is extremely sad to see that instead of trying to implement measures to curb heinous and uncultured practices, even courts are legalizing them.”

Although this High court ruling is limited to Delhi but will pave the way for repealing article 377. It should be stop here and now. There must be a clear differentiation between human rights and social obligations. Even the family system, the bone of any civilized society is at the stake. Mr.Aslam Gazi, Spokeperson, Jamaat-e-Islami, Hind, Maharashtra, said in his statement.
