ROLE OF GOVERNMENT AND NGOs

The hijras in our society suffer discrimination at every level. There are sizeable hijra communities in Lahore divided into several clans. According to statistics provided by a non-government organization (NGO), Contech International Health Education Research Resource Institute, a total of 45000 registered eunuchs in Lahore, but census data on them does not exist, making accurate enumeration impossible they continue to persist as marginalized and secretive community. Although stereotypes about hijras are constantly recycled as “alienation-grabbing” headlines, little actually make any difference. It is not just the people but even government harbors a negative attitude towards them. This is evident from the inactive role that the government is playing.

  3. it is our thinking and our culture that breeds this negativeness towards the hijra community and because of this the govt does not take a stand or bothers to do anything for them. until the people realize and accept that they deserve rights i dont think anything will change
