Understanding Gender Spectrum: Indian Experience
Abstrak
Every human being strives for a dignified life, which is a basic human right and conscious efforts have been made for so long to work towards achieving equality in Indian society. This struggle has given rise to the concept of inclusiveness which has become an integral part of the development paradigm. To date, the country is fighting for inclusive growth, where gender equality is a prerequisite. The provisions of the Indian Constitution are objective in nature and do not discriminate on the basis of sex. This paper throws light on the efforts of the Indian judiciary to bring the marginalized and excluded sections in the mainstream of Indian society. The paper further discusses the socio-legal aspects of exclusionary and discriminatory practices towards the Transgender community which is the most disadvantaged section of the society and thus makes them socially disabled.
