The Supreme Court today reserved its verdict on a batch of pleas seeking legal validation for same-sex marriage.
A five-judge Constitution bench headed by Chief Justice DY Chandrachud reserved its judgment after a 10-day hearing in the matter.
The bench, also comprising Justices SK Kaul, SR Bhat, Hima Kohli and PS Narasimha, heard the rejoinder arguments advanced by senior advocates, including AM Singhvi, Raju Ramachandran, KV Viswanathan, Anand Grover and Saurabh Kirpal, who represented the petitioners.
During the hearing on Wednesday, the Centre told the top court that any constitutional declaration made by it on pleas seeking legal validation for same-sex marriage may not be a "correct course of action" as the court will not be able to foresee, envisage, comprehend and deal with its fallout.
