Indian Coming Out Day is an annual LGBTQ awareness day observed on 2 July, to support anyone coming out of the closet.[1] This day is celebrated in commemoration of Naz Foundation v. Govt. of NCT of Delhi case which resulted in the decriminalisation of homosexual sexual activity in India by reading down of Section 377 of the Indian Penal Code by the Delhi High Court.[2]
