Ace designer Rohit Bal also took to Instagram, shared a picture and wrote some meaningful sentences. It says, " In a historic judgement for India, the Supreme Court (SC) has ruled that consensual adult sex is not a crime saying sexual orientation is natural and people have no control over it. The judgement by a Constitution bench of the country’s top court, has defanged the British-era Section 377 of the Indian Penal Code (IPC), which deemed that gay sex is a punishable offence."

"Today’s judgement heralds a new dawn for personal liberty and is a major victory for the LGBTQ community that has been fighting this battle for freedom. #RohitBal #Freedom #section377", the post read further.
