India: good to know

  • Legal & safety. The UK government's travel advice says same-sex sexual relationships are legal in India, that same-sex marriage is not, and that attitudes can be conservative, with a risk of harassment and discrimination, especially outside big cities.
  • What visitors pay. The UK government's travel advice says government and more expensive private medical care is available in major cities, and that visitors should have travel insurance that covers local treatment.

Emergency number: 112
