Same-Sex Marriage| "Matter not b/w Govt and #SupremeCourt, it concerns citizens of India. It is a question of people's will. The will of the people is reflected in Parliament, state assemblies and in forums where elected people are there": Law Minister Kiren Rijiju (@KirenRijiju) Image
"If 5 wise men, decide something which is correct according to them, I can't make any kind of any adverse comment. But if people don't want it, you can't impose things on people. A sensitive matter like the institution of marriage has to be decided by the people of the country."
"#SupremeCourt can issues directions, fill vacuum but when it comes to a matter which affects every citizen of the country, then the Court is not the forum to decide on behalf of the people of the country": Union Law Minister Kiren Rijiju (@KirenRijiju)
