world. economy. if they get very very fundamentally. not surprised that we didn't get a lot of support inside but finally the judgment came from and that's all we needed as the youth to model we need to be who we are. this is literally just a force to exist he can my vision so it's like he's mine is north and it's you know and i think this is you going to. need a lot of effort from us to get dismissed in their speeches so we want. to see if that is something that is going to continue just sexuality education from. school ever tell people that this is nothing different that we are just like anybody. that's going to sing is from the homes of trust in mumbai india's old instigate

community based organization he joins us from delhi welcome to d w let's get your reaction first to this verdict thank you. well i'm super excited and. this war because the much awaited verdict that has come to us it's a very very long to me almost like seventeen years have gone and today the day has come where we can feel very much part of the country like a free citizen there is no fear of his nor threat of three seventy seven and. i'm super excited to hear that you know of a supreme court has given us as. these super duper excited so the law changes we saw in the report society not quite so forgiving how do you think indian society will react to this. when we always say that changing the law decriminalization is the first step. but this is a very very clear. step one this is being done the next is to reach out to

stakeholders and interestingly in this judgement by the liberal judges said. we need to create an environment you need to create an environment where the community could feel comfortable we need to sensitize the masses because there are limits there are misconceptions among the community you know about g b t q so i see that from the model on work out of work is going to be multifold we need to one hand go to the law enforcement agencies we need to tell them that ok these are the no one mission that are happening please there address these issues on the second hand we need to go to our elected representatives maybe the member of parliament at the national level at the state level and at the district level now interestingly fodder for changing the mindset of the society we may need to go to the ministry of information and broadcasting because if something for example a television ad comes on the national television that has been produced by the

government of india which stays there to get it out there are different sexuality there are different genders and these are absolutely normal so those kind of things will have a long lasting impact but we also think that we have to go to. a mother source development where we will see that we need to include sexuality gender very strongly because it still leaves me for interrupting there is there is still much work to be the final brief and so if you wouldn't mind are you happy that this is now the end of this matter because my understanding is the supreme court is reversing its previous decision which itself was reversing a previous decision from the lower court so is this now the end of it you think. this is not the end this is the beginning of the judge me on but we welcome this this new move and we welcome what has come from supreme court but this is false step there are many other steps we need to talk about this the world i we need to talk about it is we need to talk about adoption right. interestingly i was in but

league party is behind the new policy of banning migrant rescue ships from italian ports certainly pleased his supporters polls indicate the league supporters doubled since the election in march skeptics however say the root of the country's problems is not migration and they fear the populace ill equipped to navigate italy's troubled economic waters w correspondent max hoffman reports from the northern italian city of goma. the site of the show is about to start after hours of waiting such enthusiasm begs the question is this really the interior minister of italy or a pop star. lego was founded close to where we are right now and it's been hosting this festival many years now so this is classic for my to the me and you can tell people here absolutely adore him. and his fans appear satisfied with what he's done

but facts don't seem to get in the way of success. across the river from the festival people are trying to do something about that. political entity has organized a protest picnic they are sick of their new government claiming that migration is response. double for everything. you got that would mean that we thought it was going on in reality it is problems like elsewhere we have high youth unemployment and many other people have only temporary jobs there are very few young people who get permanent contracts. we have a high poverty rate in relative and absolute terms. it's no surprise that the event on this side of the river is the only one to host some migrants. on the other side show is drawing

to a close the interior minister's folks sometimes funny demeanor is one of the reasons why he's managed to govern and gained in popularity he admits though when pressed that it's not all been fun and games just. well it's not easy it's really is a big country we have important challenges but i was tired of being in the opposition and. in the opposition answers to complex problems are often easier salvini has survived the first one hundred days in power unscathed but soon he will have to show if he can actually. see the past. u.s. president donald trump has turned his scathing attention to nike's latest campaign
