> In metros you would find gay pubs and bars, open kissing on the streets among gay partners with no one bothered a bit
I really doubt this. Kissing in public is highly frowned upon for heterosexuals only and there will be a shitstorm if gay couple found openly kissing. Take this incident, happened in September 2014 in Mumbai/Bombay, two couples were harassed by police just because they hugged publicly[0]. Police harass couples all the time if they found indulging in PDA. Read this BBC news report for instance[1].
Wiki [2] says: "Public display of affection is regarded as unacceptable in India. Kissing and hugging are taboo."
