I have learnt somewhere that in India the British made homosexuality illegal in 1861 through Article 377 of the Indian Penal Code, terming it as "an act against the order of the nature". Is it so?
What was the attitude toward homosexuality of the Mughals?
Was homosexuality a punishable offence duringit different between the reign ofruling class and the Mughalscommon people?
Was homosexuality? overtly, officially or covertlyunofficially, permissible during the reign of any Mughal ruler, or was it illegal throughout the period?
