Abstract

It is awful for India that we are still don’t have any such laws that allow queer parenting, law hasn’t allowed transgender community to avail the happiness of being parents. It is not wrong to say that the fight against discriminating against section 377 must not end there. It’s just like a battle of half-won. They face so much discrimination in their daily life at home or workplaces. India reflects diversification where everyone has equal rights, and according to article 15, there is no such discrimination. The government is working hard enough for the welfare of the transgender community. They provide different-different forms of programs, schemes and many free operations to ensure that they do not face any social difficulties. We must be aware that in previous times they were not even considered a gender, but now they got recognition as the third gender as per the right to choose your gender. The transgender community have various rights under the constitution of India, but one right for them is still missing, that is ‘can they adopt a child or not?’
