Supporting the cause, Dr. K.K. Aggarwal, president of Heart Care Foundation of India, highlighted the medical problems related to homosexuality.

'Medical science has removed the term 'homosexuality', it only includes MSM (Men who have sex with men) or WSW (Women who have sex with women). In the US, Canada and Europe the MSM are not allowed to donate blood for life. And in Spain, New Zealand and Australia for one year after the last sexual act a MSM is classified as high risk behaviour. And every blood recipient has a right to know whether or not the blood donor is indulging in high risk behaviour or not.'

'MSMs have a high risk of diseases like Hepatitis B or epilepsy and the infection rate is also higher than a normal human being,' added Aggarwal.

Religious leaders like Kamal Farooqui, chairman of the Minorities Commission, Swami Raghuanandji (Hindu), Father Dominic (Christian), Mahendir Singh (Sikh) and Lama Lob Jang (Buddhist) have signed a resolution seeking review of the court order.

The Delhi High Court decriminalized gay sex between consenting adults by striking down section 377 of the Indian Penal Code (IPC) on July 2, quoting Jawaharlal Nehru to emphasize that the constitution guaranteed homosexuals rights equal to what other citizens enjoy.
