10 Queer Start-Ups that should look up to for your cute and alternate products

Well, it’s June and we all know this month is celebrated as Rainbow month or Pride Month to celebrate the LGBTQI+ community and their rights. The movement started from New York when the Stonewall Uprising took place in New York City, USA, on June 28, 1969. The NYPD would routinely raid LGBT nightclubs and harass the LGBTQ community at the time. The American Constitution also contained rules against homosexuality at that time. In the following year, an official pride parade was carried out on the anniversary of the Stonewall Riots. That tradition is still on and since then, June is seen as Pride Month.

On this Pride Month, we thought of featuring some queer start-ups in India, and here’s the list of them all. Though we are featuring them during the pride month, but let’s keep applauding and supporting these start-ups throughout the year and after.
