Supreme Court urged to review gay ruling

Lucknow, July 4 : Students and teachers of Lucknow's City Montessori School (CMS) - the world's largest school in terms of enrolment - have appealed to the chief justice of India to review the Delhi High Court's judgement on decriminalising homosexuality.

'On behalf of our 37,000 students and hundreds of teachers, we have forwarded a letter to Justice K.G. Balakrishnan, requesting him to urgently hold a sitting of the full bench of the Supreme Court to review the judgement,' Jagdish Gandhi, founder manager of CMS, told reporters here Saturday.

The Delhi High Court's judgement will strengthen the already disintegrating structure and fabric of Indian society and ethos, Gandhi said.

Students and teachers of the school are of the view that champions of gay rights are only a microscopic minority in India.

Law should be enacted and so interpreted as to ensure protection of culture and moral values of the vast majority, they said.

'Law is to maintain social issues and morality, but the unfortunate verdict of the High Court tends to mislead youth and it will cause break-ups in society and family and will tarnish the Indian culture and tradition,' said Gandhi.

The CMS is in the Guinness Book of Records for maximum enrolment of pupils.
