Unmarried couples in a live-in relationship must register it with the government within 30 days of moving in together. The registrar reviews the application and may ask for additional information during an investigation. If approved, the relationship is recorded in a register and a certificate issued. Refusal to register may occur if one partner is married, a minor, or if consent was obtained through coercion or fraud. Partners can end the relationship by notifying the registrar and their partner. Failing to register the relationship or providing false information can result in fines, up to 3 months of imprisonment, or both.
This will end every closeted same-sex “we’re just roomates” relationship. The unspoken way gay relationships have been overlooked for generations by having “a roomate” could land you in jail now.
Conservatives love to pass laws to “protect the children” as a pretext to oppress people. It is already illegal to be in a sexual relationship with a child. A registration will not enhance that. Their reasons are fake.
Remember that a conservative is not capable of honesty. Every word spoken by a conservative is either deception or manipulation. Especially when they give excuses for a law designed to tighten the noose on a vulnerable class.
Would the government recognize that for same-sex co-residents? I’m assuming they’re too conservative to care about anything other than an unmarried man and unmarried woman living together.
Live-in relationships tend to be viewed by Indian society as taboo. If any cohabitants are accused of being homosexual, they could be charged with a crime for not registering a live-in relationship. Under this live-in registration law, same-sex relationships are not permitted.
Conservatives despise gay people (and other vulnerable classes). They weaponize laws to harm these people. They are creating a weapon with this law and they will definitely use it as I am describing. While many may slip under the radar or not become a victim to this law, it is still designed to harm innocent people and teach the populace to discriminate against them.
I’m surprised the government would risk recognizing them and potentially legitimizing them.
This. Not a chance in hell the government would have any way to regulate men working in the cities from living with other men. That’s pretty much how working in indian metropolii works
