Same Sex Couple Advertisement

The Dabur Karwa Chauth ad featuring a same sex couple had to be pulled off because of "public intolerance", Supreme Court judge said on Saturday, commenting on the gap between laws aiming at removing social inequities and the ground reality.

Madhya Pradesh Home Minister Narottam Mishra today said he has directed the state police chief to ask Dabur India to withdraw the "objectionable" advertisement featuring a same sex couple observing Karva Chauth and take legal action.

A leading Australian bridal magazine has shut after being ditched by advertisers for refusing to feature same-sex couples, one year after the country changed its marriage laws.
