Everyday is a pride day, wellsaid @Rahul001 . In the last century this has become a taboo. Thanks to recent awareness and celebrating Pride month. Our scriptures say everyone are equal before God. There are many examples for this. The concept of Arthanareeswara the God himself is an example. Thanks for your efforts in making Google Maps Pride friendly.

Thank you for remembering me… dear @Rahul001
