| Abstract: | ABSTRACT: Domestic violence in same-sex relationships is an area that is woefully under-studied and remains invisible in the discourses on violence both legally and socially in India. Since the de-criminalisation of same-sex relationships through Section 377 of IPC (2018), there are three areas of equal rights that meaningfully lack which are relationship, legal recognition and protection from domestic violence. This paper will explore the many facets of domestic violence within, while analysing the social, cultural and legal barriers that engender victimisation and invisibility. Through a critique of the legal framework, policies, and judicial understanding of violence against LGBTQ+ siblings, the research identifies gaps in Indian law that do not offer recourse and safety for queer individuals who are subjected to domestic violence. The paper also connected to the grassroots realities by reviewing reports produced by human rights organizations and LGBTQ collectives, grounding some of the legal analysis in lived experience. The findings of this research suggested that legislative reform is urgently needed for increasing the scope of protections under the law to include all persons, irrespective of gender and/or sexuality. This paper ultimately concluded that failure to explicitly include samesex domestic violence has institutionalized inequality, which defeats justice. |
