An NRI settled in the US has started the first-of-its-kind portal which will serve as a customised marriage agency for homosexuals to find life partners in India.
Benhur Samson, who has been working in the field of medical tourism and helping gay couples have children through surrogacy, said he decided to start the service arrangegaymarriage.com for homosexuals to get life partners, after receiving requests from his clients.
He said that his customised marriage agency for gay couples is different from numerous dating sites that cater to gays as here they familiarise themselves with the clients for nearly a year before finding their partner, based on their requirements.
He claimed that he has already received nearly 250 enquiries from gays, mostly Indians, and his agency has already helped 29 couples tie the knot through the portal. The agency conducts background checks as well as counselling.
