According to a study by RSS affiliate Samwardhini Nyas, which cited medical experts, homosexuality is a “disorder”.
According to the poll NDTV cited in its article, legalising same-sex unions would lead to an upsurge in homosexuality in society.
A top official of the Rashtra Sevika Samiti, a women’s group that is similar to the RSS, was also cited.
It is said that the survey’s conclusions are based on 318 answers gathered nationwide from medical professionals who practise eight various paths of therapy, from contemporary science to Ayurveda.
According to Samwardhini Nyas, approximately 70% of physicians and other medical experts responded to the study by saying that “homosexuality is a disorder,” and 83% of them “confirmed transmission of sexual disease in homosexual relations.”
The RSS group was cited in the paper as saying, “From the survey, it is observed that the decision to legalise such marriages may promote more disorder in the society rather than curing patients and bringing them to normalcy.”
“Counselling is the better option to cure patients of such a psychological disorder,” it has been said.
According to the findings, the Samwardhini Nyas study advised seeking out public opinion before to making any decisions about the desire for same-sex marriage legalisation.
The story reported an RSS affiliate as saying that “more than 67% of the doctors in their response to the survey questionnaire felt that homosexual parents cannot raise their offspring properly.”
The Samwardhini Nyas conducted the poll while a group of petitions seeking legal recognition of same-sex marriage were being heard by a five-judge constitution bench, presided over by Chief Justice D Y Chandrachud.
According to a top Samwardhini Nyas official quoted in the newspaper, “over 57% of the doctors who responded to the survey disfavour the Supreme Court’s intervention in the matter.”
