Abstract
The term homosexuality, has always been linked with some kind of mental illness or disorder. While some people fail to understand the true meaning of this words, others have significantly failed to understand it in a true sense. Over the centuries, the people who had the different sexual orientation than that of others have co-existed and this is not a fact per se but its evidence can be traced from the history of the world.

The most crucial part of this is the landmark case of Navtej Singh Johas and Ors. V. Union of India, which contributed greatly on the impression how the homosexual community is viewed in the recent time.
