Study of Welfare of Transgender of India with Special Reference to State of Chhattisgarh

Abstract

Transgender people struggle with gender injustice worldwide. Because they had brought shame upon their family, their immediate family would desert them. They are compelled to live among others from their community. They go by a variety of names depending on where they reside, including Aravanis, Shivshakti, Kothi, Eunuch, and Jogappa,1 but "Kinnar" or "hijra" is the most widely used term in India. The hijras live a different lifestyle; they typically dress as women wearing sarees and colorful, vibrant cosmetics. usually seen cheering and pleading for donations from bystanders in public locations. People either look at them with interest or hostility depending on how they appear. People make verbal remarks about them and mock them. Additionally, because they are viewed as weak and alone for what they are, they are frequently the targets of attacks and bullying. These folks are left alone and unsure of how to proceed with their lives after losing their families and social networks. They seek refuge among the other transgender groups because of this.
