"It is important that obvious things are stated, so that next time someone flings the rubbish that homosexuality is a disease, we have enough support from medical voices in India," says Pallav Patankar, director of programmes, Humasafar Trust, which is spearheading a campaign against misinformation about 'curing homosexuality'.

Started earlier this month, the campaign titled Queers against Quacks, will be on till tomorrow, the Intern-ational Day Against Homophobia, Transphobia and Biphobia, with a rally at Azad Maidan (4.30 pm onwards). The team will use various platforms including social media, to make people aware that being gay is neither a disorder nor a disease.
