Get PDFThis paper aims to upfront the voices of the unheard. The focus of this paper is to clarify the misconceptions about who transgender are, their struggle and their legal acceptance to be a dignified part of our closely knit Indian society. Transgender people suffer persistent inequalities in all aspects of life.

Radhakrishnan , “Recognition of Transgender as a third gender is not a social or medical issue but a human rights issue.” This paper lays its focus on the recognition and acceptance of the transgender/Hijra as the third gender and what are their legal, marital and parenting rights. Social equality is the basis of human happiness and the Constitution of India affirms equality in all spheres. India, as a growing and continuously changing nation has taken a positive step towards incorporating the true essence of equality in the present society

But today\u27s old age society is extremely frustrated and is generally more sad because of the fact that despite having a wide experience of life, the new generation neither gives the desired respect to the old generation nor is ready to accept their opinion.
