Can’t ask Parliament to create BNS equivalent of Sec 377: Supreme Court
The Supreme Court declined to entertain a plea urging the creation of laws punishing non-consensual unnatural sex, stating it falls within Parliament’s legislative duties. Despite previous judgments creating offences, the bench emphasized its inability to compel legislative action. A contrasting Delhi High Court ruling had sought similar provisions in the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita, urging prompt government action.
