The Supreme Court decision in Supriyo v Union of India (2023) principally concerned which issue?

Select one answer
Answer and explanation

Correct answer A

Supriyo v Union of India (2023) concerned legal recognition of same-sex marriage. It was distinct from the earlier decriminalisation issue in Navtej Singh Johar. Identifying the subject of Supriyo does not mean that the Court granted the requested marriage recognition.

Option feedback

Option A

Supriyo concerned recognition of same-sex marriage.

Option B

The decriminalisation issue had been addressed in Navtej; it was not the relief sought in Supriyo.

Option C

The combined claim incorrectly adds decriminalisation as the subject of Supriyo.

Option D

The denial is wrong because same-sex marriage was its subject.
