Centre again urges SC to hear states, UTs on same-sex marriage

A day after the Supreme Court declined to make states and union territories parties to proceedings on petitions for legal recognition for same-sex marriage, the Centre on Wednesday said it has started a consultation process with states which are vital stakeholders in it.

Stating that the Centre has written to states and union territories about these proceedings, Solicitor General Tushar Mehta told a five-judge Constitution Bench led by CJI DY Chandrachud that he would like to repeat his request to make all states and union territories parties to the case.
