Kāmāyana

The sexual orientation of the people is one of the least discussed issues in India. We do not talk about an issue that defines and shapes a major part of one’s being. This program is to let the word of awareness spread among the people about the different types of sexuality that exist, for we as a society cannot, in any way, ignore the sections that constitute it and contribute to it, for to have a healthy culture, we feel, it is important not to discriminate against anybody and not to deny their fundamental right to equality on the basis of their sexual preferences. Under this program, we try to share the stories and experiences of the people from LGBTQIA community by providing them with a platform to speak their heart out. Understanding the critical nature and sensitivity of the issue, we allow anonymous submissions for this program as well.
