BJP leader and former Foreign Minister Yaswant Singh demanded that the government take action against US personnel in India having same sex companions following the Supreme Court order against gay sex.

"Media has reported that we have issued visas to a number of US diplomats' companions. 'Companions' means that they are of the same sex. Now, after the Supreme Court ruling, it is completely illegal in our country, just as paying less wages was illegal in the US.



"So, why does not the Government of India go ahead and arrest them and punish them," Sinha said.
