Abstract	This exploration paper examines the part of homosexuality in Indian society. It explores the literal, legal, and social aspects of homosexuality, throwing the light on the evolving comprehensions and challenges faced by LGBTQ+ individualities in India. By probing into these confines, the paper contributes to a better understanding of the complex relationship between homosexuality and the societies in India. Homosexuals have always been conducted strangely and else. The Hon’ble Supreme Court interdicted a part of Section 377, and that is, a consensual same- coitus sexual exertion is no more offence. Nonetheless, a non-consensual sexual act is still an offence under section 377. So, bare decriminalization is neither enough for LGBTQ+ people nor for our society. They’re still deprived of getting status of either legal or societal. This paper aims to present moment’s script of LGBTQ+ people in India and make society apprehensive that they are not abnormal or different.
