All class of society should come forth to strengthen character,
human and cultural ethics
— Jagdish Gandhi, renowned educationist and Founder, CMS

Lucknow, 4 July : It has become the cry of the hour to strongly stop the deteriorating conditions of human, character and cultural values and instead the decisions are being made for family and social integration, as recently Hon'ble Delhi High Court gave its verdict in favour of homosexuality and justified this unnatural act. These thoughts were expressed by world famous educationist Dr Jagdish Gandhi, the founder-manager of City Montessori School in a press conference being held here while expressing his views on the verdict of the Delhi High Court. Addressing the media personnel Dr Gandhi said that homosexuality is a prevalent concept of western countries which has now attacked our cultural heritage and values which must be opposed by one and all to safeguard the young and the future generation from getting into darkness. Dr Gandhi said that this verdict of court is being attacked from all the corners of society and all the classes of society have found this verdict excruciating.

Talking to the media, Dr Gandhi said that although the court in its verdict didn't find homosexuality as criminal but it is a severe crime against the society. Dr Gandhi stated that the aim of law is to maintain social issues and morality but the unfortunate verdict of honourable High Court tend to mislead youth and it will cause break ups in society and family and will tarnish the Indian culture and tradition. Dr Gandhi emphatically said that keeping aside the verdict of court's view, homosexuality is against human values and cultural ethics and legalizing it would widespread several cultural deformities which would be unstoppable by anybody. So, its in our interest to bury this unnatural concept before it spreads.

Dr Gandhi said that its the moral responsibility of CMS that social unity, coherence and cultural heritage must be safeguarded.
Dr Gandhi said that it is the responsibility of all the people, intelligentsia class, schools, colleges and social institutions to come forth, become the guide of youth and build a healthy society. He said that CMS has been imparting the teachings of 'Vasudhaiv Kutumbkam' i.e. world is but one family. Our institution has progressed because it follows the path of ideals set by the idol of truth and ahimsa Mahatma Gandhi and Vinoba Bhave.
