The Central government on Wednesday urged the Supreme Court to consider leaving the decision over marriage equality concerning the LGBTQ+ community to Parliament. Appearing for the Centre on the fifth day of the hearing, Solicitor General Tushar Mehta said marriage is a socio-legal institution and its recognition is necessarily a matter of legislative policy. He earlier said the matter is beyond the judiciary's scope.
