Imphal, July 07 2009:
In protest against the recent Delhi High Court ruling legalising homosexuality, a large number of elderly persons staged a Wakat Meepham at Langol Tarung today.
Talking to mediapersons on the sideline of the protest demonstration staged at the head office of Evening Glory Prayer Team (Tinjinpuang), team advisor Reverend Ramkhul demanded reviewing of the Delhi High court ruling and said legalising homosexuality is against religion and Bible apart from not a accepted norm of human society.
Even if such practices may be prevalent in western countries, it is not acceptable in Manipur, he said, while urging for reviewing of the Delhi High Court order.
Placards inscribed with slogans like 'Gay sex is against all religion', 'It is animalism to embrace gay sex', 'Gay se is not human law, not even animal', 'We appeal Delhi High Court to review order on gay sex', etc were seen being used by the protestors who also shouted slogan like 'We condemn gay sex'.
