Abstract

This article examines the recent repeal of section 377A of the Penal Code and the concurrent constitutional amendment to strengthen the institution of marriage as the union of one man and one woman. Specifically, it explains the jurisprudential significance of the new constitutional provision, Article 156, which has a bearing on our understanding of the laws and policies to be enacted and implemented in future.
