(Delhi, India) - A lesbian couple in Delhi has gone underground after they declared their wedding on Sunday. Their families of Geeta and Babli have disowned them and efforts are on to resolve them though the police have failed. ''We didn't want them to live here as we have other kids and that would set a bad example for them,'' Babli's mother Lajpat said. The women had been in a relationship for the past year and a half. Many lesbian women hestiate to step out of the closet fearing hostility from society and an insenstive media whose reportage isolates more than integrates such cases.
