Transforming Rights: How Law Shapes Transgender Lives, identity and Community in India


Overview

India's rapid transformation in transgender rights has few global parallels. From the recognition of gender self-determination to the decriminalisation of same-sex relations, courts have set out a framework that guarantees dignity, autonomy and equal protection under the law. Yet the lived reality of the trans community continues to be marked by exclusion, discrimination, violence and the daily fight for even basic rights like access to education, healthcare, employment and shelter. Transforming Rights confronts this contradiction head-on.
