It is a fact that unprotected sex is a major cause for the spread of AIDS, and homosexuals, on account of their promiscuity, are major carriers
of HIV. On the one hand, the Government spends a fortune trying to combat
AIDS while on the other it now proposes to legalise homosexuality thereby
running the risk of vastly adding to the number of HIV-positive people.
Just because certain unnatural practices exist in society, they do not always have
to be legitimised.
Just because some people in the West think it is fashionable to be gay is no
reason why India must follow suit and add to its already monumental social
problems.
