Justice Anand Venkatesh allowed the State Public Prosecutor Hasan Mohammed Jinnah’s request for three more months to finalise such policy.
While granting such time, the judge said that it was laudable that the State of Tamil Nadu, which is considered as a relatively conservative state by the rest of the country, was showing the way through the policy.
“This Court is confident that the State will finalise and notify the policy within three months. If this is done, it will set a precedent for the entire country and give a day of hope for the LGBTQIA+ community. It is amazing that it has come from Tamil Nadu, which the rest of the country considers to be a relatively conservative State,” Justice Venkatesh said.
