| Summary, etc. |
The Transgender Persons (Protection of Rights) Act, 2019, came into effect on 5 December 2019 and the Rules on 25 September 2020. The Law provides for the obligations of government, family, educational institutions and employers. Through various Indian as well as global case laws and other literature, the Handbook on the Law for Protection of Rights of Transgender Persons discusses the rights of transgender children and adults, and duties to provide inclusive education and equal opportunities in employment without discrimination, bias, harassment and bullying. It also covers aspects on creation of awareness and redressal of grievances. This handbook is not only a legal commentary analysing sections but also a practical guide for all stakeholders. Accordingly, it has a sample each of Equal Opportunity Policy, Employment Equity Policy, Transition Policy and Plan, and Grievance Redressal Policy, and dos and don'ts and tips for Complaint Officers.<br/>'Ek machhar aadmi ko hijra bana deta hai... I was 7 years old when this Nana Patekar's dialogue from the movie Yeshwant became very popular. I recall asking several friends and family members what the term Hijra meant so that I could understand the dialogue better. I either got a shrugged shoulder or a hush for asking such questions, and even-tually my curiosity died. By the time I was 12 years old, I remember being called Chakka and all the friends in the group laughing. Even though I didn't understand the meaning, I recall feeling humiliated as if a derogatory word had been used. I remember wanting to find out what this term meant. We did not have internet back then. So eventually I asked my mother, and she explained to me what it meant. I was confused still - What does this have to do with the number 6? Why is it a joke and why were people laughing? Why is it bad to be called Ch*kka? These were some of the other questions I asked my mother. Unfortunately, she did not have an answer to my many questions - probably she was unaware too. I grew up to be a cis-gender heterosexual woman, a safe' category to be in. I moved to Mumbai to complete my degree in law from Government Law College and saw, over the years, several traffic signals and several trans folx going about their lives - this was the only aspect of their lives I could see - and wonder about so many things. Eventually, due to several triggers, I decided to work as a lawyer in the social impact space - gender, sex, sexuality, harassment and discrimination being at the core of all my work.<br/>(Sources: https://lawbookshop.net/law-protection-rights-transgender-persons-shivangi-prasad.html) |
