New Delhi: Displaying love and commitment, Ananya Kotia, a PhD student at the London School of Economics, gained remarkable attention with a heartfelt post on X that follows the recent Supreme Court verdict on same-sex marriages in India.
“Yesterday hurt. Today, @utkarsh__saxena and I went back to the court that denied our rights, and exchanged rings. So this week wasn’t about a legal loss, but our engagement. We’ll return to fight another day,” wrote X user Kotia while sharing a picture on the microblogging platform.

The Constitution Bench ruled that Parliament should draft the laws governing same-sex unions. The bench was chaired by Chief Justice of India DY Chandrachud and included Justices Sanjay Kishan Kaul, S Ravindra Bhat, Hima Kohli, and PS Narasimha. However, the ruling rejected the legal recognition of same-sex unions in the nation.
