The Orlando shooting has triggered a gay rights debate in India. Award-winning film editor and writer Apurva Asrani has written an open letter to Prime Minister Narendra Modi asking why he didn't mention LGBTQ in his condolence tweet on Orlando shooting. On The Buck Stops Here, we ask: is there no political will to scrap Section 377? Are politicians passing the buck and waiting for the Supreme Court to decide on the issue? Will netas ever stand up for gay rights in India?
