Section 377 of IPC archaic, no place in 21st century: Cong
The Congress has termed Section 377 of the Indian Penal Code, which criminalises homosexuality, as "archaic", adding that it has no place in the 21st century. Welcoming the Supreme Court's decision to review the constitutional validity of Section 377, it further said that "the time has come...either the courts must read down...or the government should repeal it from the IPC."
