New Delhi, May 24 : The Centre on Monday opposed the urgent hearing in Delhi High Court on a batch of pleas seeking recognition to same-sex marriages in India under the Hindu Marriage Act, Special Marriage Act and Foreign Marriage Act.
Solicitor General Tushar Mehta, representing the Centre, submitted before a division bench of Justices Rajiv Sahai Endlaw and Amit Bansal that law officers were struggling with COVID-19 issues amid the pandemic and the government is focussing on urgent issues.
