Centre refuses to file affidavit in Pegasus case in SC, cites national security

The Supreme Court Monday reserved its interim order on petitions seeking a probe into allegations of unauthorised surveillance using the Pegasus software, with the Centre reiterating that it was ready to have all questions gone into by a committee of experts, but did not want to put it in public domain for reasons of national security.

“We are reserving and will pass an interim order. It might take 2-3 days to pass the orders,” a bench headed by Chief Justice of India N V Ramana said after hearing the petitioners and Solicitor General Tushar Mehta.

The CJI remarked that the only thing the court wanted to know in the face of the allegations is if there has been any interception using methods other than those allowed under the law. In this connection, he also referred to the statement given in Parliament by former IT Minister Ravi Shankar Prasad about some WhatsApp users being affected by the alleged use of Pegasus.

According to Bhumi Pednekar, who supports same-sex unions in India, she is “an ally of the community.”

In India, the discussion around LGBTQIA+ rights and acceptance has been gaining momentum in recent years. As more and more public figures speak out in support of the community, the conversation around the topic has become more mainstream. One such public figure who has been vocal in her support of the community is Bollywood actress Bhumi Pednekar.

Pednekar, known for her roles in movies such as Dum Laga Ke Haisha and Toilet: Ek Prem Katha, has been an ally of the LGBTQIA+ community for some time now. In a recent interview, she spoke about her support for same-sex unions in India.

According to Pednekar, she is “an ally of the community” and believes that everyone should have the right to love and be loved, regardless of their gender or sexual orientation. She also spoke about the need for more awareness and education around LGBTQIA+ issues in India.

Pednekar’s support for same-sex unions is particularly noteworthy given that same-sex marriage is currently not legal in India. The country’s laws regarding homosexuality have been the subject of much debate and controversy, with many activists calling for a repeal of Section 377 of the Indian Penal Code, which criminalized homosexuality until 2018.

Despite the legal challenges facing the LGBTQIA+ community in India, many public figures, including Pednekar, have been using their platforms to raise awareness and advocate for change. By speaking out in support of same-sex unions, Pednekar is helping to contribute to a more inclusive and accepting society in India.

In conclusion, Bhumi Pednekar’s support for same-sex unions in India is a positive step towards greater acceptance and understanding of the LGBTQIA+ community. As more public figures speak out in support of the community, it is hoped that the conversation around LGBTQIA+ rights in India will continue to gain momentum, leading to greater equality and acceptance for all.
