LGBTQIA+ rights activists have condemned VCK chief Thol Thirumavalavan for describing same-sex relationships as "perversion" during a public event, and demanded an apology and clarity on the party's stands on LGBTQIA+ rights.

- EXPRESS NEWS SERVICE @ Chennai

A collective statement, issued by LGBTQIA+ Persons Who Stand For Social Justice called the comment "deeply disturbing" and "unscientific."

The comment, made at the Let Us Learn Democracy and Student Parliament 2025 conference on April 12, came in response to a law student's question about same-sex relationships in the context of Tamil society's definition of love.
