This first issue couldn’t have been released at a better time. At this historic moment, as we celebrate the decriminalization of homosexuality in the world’s largest democracy, let us also take time out to acknowledge the relentless struggle of those thousands of known and unknown men and women who’ve made this victory possible. And therefore, to them is dedicated this first issue, with the theme- Freedom… after 150 years!

When TimeOut Magazine interviewed me about the upcoming Pink Pages project, one of the first questions that they asked me was- how is it different from the queer publications already in place? And the answer is- in many ways.

For starters, this is India’s first ever national gay and lesbian magazine. All other queer publications till now have been either restricted geographically, or had been targeted only for a limited intellectual readership. This is the first effort to reach out the entire community at large- at an all-India level.
