Supreme Court judge DY Chandrachud, who was part of the five-judge bench which decriminalised gay sex, has expressed disappointment at the government's decision to leave "sensitive issues" like Section 377 to the "wisdom of the court". Chandrachud asked, "Why do politicians sometimes hand over power to judges and we see that happening in the Supreme Court every day."
