Brands show some love after SC declares verdict on 377

September 6th was a momentous day for the LGBTQ community as the much awaited Supreme Court verdict declared that parts of Section 377 that criminalises consensual homosexual intercourse between adults has been struck down. The five judge bench that gave the verdict was comprised of Chief Justice Dipak Mishra, Justice DY Chandrachud, Justice RF Nariman, Justice AM Khanwilkar, and Justice Indu Malhotra. The decision of the Supreme Court was unanimous. Of course, the LGBTQ community was overjoyed once the verdict came in but the outpouring of support and enthusiastic well-wishers who took to social media and spread the message was also startling.

Brands and agencies expressed their solidarity with the LGBTQ community by taking to Twitter, Facebook and Instagram to publish creatives that rejoiced the revision of Section 377. Let’s take a look at a few of them:
