<br/><br/> Although the basic rights of LGBT categories of sex have been protected in India<br/>by Transgender Persons (Protection of Rights) Act, 2019, yet the formation of<br/>family and adoption of children by same sex couple have neither been approved<br/>legally nor socially. The countries of Indian peninsula have almost similar trend,<br/>however, some Asian countries, on the line of Western countries, have recently<br/>granted recognition to same sex marriages. Here arise questions - how the<br/>conjugal rights of same sex be assured in India? How the same-sex couple, whose<br/>marriages have been legally solemnized in other countries, can be protected in<br/>India? The formal acknowledgment of same-sex marriages remains contentious.<br/>As such the present paper explores the legal implications surrounding the<br/>recognition of foreign same-sex marriages in India, emphasizing the confl ict<br/>between established cultural norms and evolving legal frameworks. On the basis<br/>of analysis, it can be highly advocated for a judicial approach that may balance<br/>individual dignity with societal expectations. - Reproduced<br/><br/>http://www.iipabiharbranch.org/upload/BJPA%20Vol.%20XXI%20No%202(S).pdf<br/><br/>
