Yup, he's the same guy. Just for your further info, he was accepted back into the royal family after the latter changed their way of thinking.

The BeaStKid It looks as though he'll (continue to) have a very positive effect on gay rights and gay issues in India! How awesome! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BeaStKid Posted October 9, 2007 Author Share Posted October 9, 2007 It looks as though he'll (continue to) have a very positive effect on gay rights and gay issues in India! How awesome! Yup, he's somewhat become an icon here! There was this report on India TV, and Dhruv of you're reading this you'll agree that India TV is not known for gay-friendliness. Well, on that report, they were telling that this Prince has appealed for Section 377 (the law which criminalizes gay sex) to be read down. Manavendrasingh has also been invited to some gay-conference in the U.S. The BeaStKid Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
