Make Section 69 of the BNS Act Gender-Inclusive: Men and LGBTQ+ Deserve Justice Too


Make Section 69 of the BNS Act Gender-Inclusive: Men and LGBTQ+ Deserve Justice Too
The Issue
People from all walks of life face the tough reality of being tricked into sexual situations by false promises of marriage. Right now, the proposed Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita (BNS), 2023, mainly talks about cases involving women. But it forgets about men and LGBTQ+ individuals who also get trapped in deceitful situations. This makes the system unfair and doesn't give everyone the protection they need, no matter their gender or who they love.
Keeping things the way they are now means a lot of survivors won't get the justice they deserve. Men and LGBTQ+ individuals who've been lied to about getting married struggle to get justice because the law doesn't really get what they've been through. The problem is big – not fixing Section 69 means these survivors won't get the support they need. It's like the law is ignoring their pain and sticking to old stereotypes.
We need to act now because this is a moment where we can change the law to make it fair for everyone. It's important to see that men and LGBTQ+ individuals can be victims too. Recent cases and how society is thinking show that we can't wait. If we change Section 69 to include everyone, we're saying loud and clear that JUSTICE IS FOR EVERYONE, no matter their gender or who they love. This isn't just about helping survivors – it's about breaking down old ideas that keep discriminating against people.
Let's join forces to push lawmakers to make Section 69 of the BNS Act fair for everyone, making sure justice is there for all survivors, no matter their gender or sexual orientation. Sign and share this petition to be a part of the change we really need!
