The Supreme Court asserted that courts cannot wait for a
majoritarian government to decide on enacting, amending or striking down a law
if it violates fundamental rights. The court observed this while hearing a

court made clear that it may not strike down the law completely and deal with
it to the extent it relates to consensual acts between two adults.
