1. LGBTQIA+ THEIR RIGHTS
AND PROTECTION

2. INTRODUCTION
•LGBTQIA+ stands for lesbian, gay, bisexual,transgender, queer (or
sometimes questioning), intersex, asexual, and others. The "plus"
represents other sexual identities, including pansexual and Two-Spirit.
The first four letters of the acronym have been used since the 1990s, but
in recent years there has been an increased awareness of the need to be
inclusive of other sexual identities to offer better representation.
•The acronym is used to represent a diverse range of sexualities and
gender-identities, referring to anyone who is transgender and/or
same/similar gender attracted.

•Hinduism:While the followers of Hinduism have different stances on homosexuality as a whole. However, there is enough literature
available in Hinduism that speaks volume about same-sex relationships and as an extension to same-sex marriages.
•Islam:Islamic Shariah law is extracted from the Quran and Muhammad’s Sunnah. It’s very clear in Islam that homosexuality is a
punishable sin.
•Christianity: Homosexuality is condemned in Christianity.
•Parsis:In Zoroastrianism too, homosexuality is considered something evil and is strongly forbidden.

9. ADOPTION, GUARDIANSHIP AND SURROGACY
•Although Section 377 of IPC has been decriminalized still the law debars LGBTQIA+ community from
adopting children altogether. This demonstrates the homosexual couples are not equal before the law.
•HowtheadoptionlawsdiscriminatetheLGBTQIA+couples
•Accordingtoregulation5(3)oftheAdoptionRegulationAct,2017,onlyacouplehavingastablerelationshipoftwoyearsis
eligibletoadoptachild.Further,thesectionusesthewords“husband”and“wife”whichbasicallymeansthatitdoesnot
recognizetherighttoadoptionincaseofsame-sexcouples.
•Sincethereisadifferentsetofadoptionrulesappliedinthecaseofmenandwomenthus,theapplicabilityofsuchlawswith

12. Making the laws Gender Neutral
•It is implicit that the word “ Marriage “ in the inheritance laws is restricted only to the heterosexual marriages. So, before this law can be applied in the case of LGBTQIA+ couples it is essential the law recognizes same-sex marriages. Apart from this, another point is to consider is that although the gender is irrelevant and the inheritance happens based on nearness, yet it is essential that the language should be made completely neutral so that even transgender people or the person who undergoes sex change shall not be discriminated.
Case-Ilyas vs. Badshah, AIR 1990 MP 334
The court , despite knowing the religion of the deceased,
held that as per the custom of the transgenders or the third sex community the property shall not be willed away outside the community.

15. DISCRIMINATION CAN REFER TO ANY SORT OF ACT OR BEHAVIOR THAT
DISTINGUISHES OR SINGLES OUT
INDIVIDUALS ON ACCOUNT OF FACTORS SUCH AS AGE, SEX, RACE,
NATIONAL ORIGIN, SEXUAL
ORIENTATION, AND GENDER IDENTITY. THIS CAN INCLUDE
REVOKING OR EXTENDING
PREFERENTIAL TREATMENT. THE PRIMARY FORMS OF DISCRIMINATION
DISCUSSED IN REFERENCE TO THE
LGBTQ POPULATION ARE THOSE BASED ON SEXUAL ORIENTATION
AND GENDER IDENTITY. HOWEVER,
LGBTQ INDIVIDUALS CAN ALSO FACE DISCRIMINATION AS A RESULT OF
OTHER IDENTIFIERS, SUCH AS THEIR
SKIN COLOUR, NATIONAL ORIGIN, OR ABILITIES.
Examples of overt discrimination may be:
LGBTQ parents, children, teachers, and community workers can face exclusion and abuse from other people in their community through attempted participation in social activities, events, or education-based organizations.
denying equal pay.
denying goods and services on account of gender or sexual orientation.
refusing housing.
sexual harassment.
Medical Care Discrimination.
failing to accommodate individuals with disabilities.
DISCRIMINATION FACED BY THE LGBTQ COMMUNITY

16. TRANSGENDER PERSONS (PROTECTION OF RIGHTS) ACT,2019
Transgender Persons (Protection of Rights) Act, 2019has been the brightest ray of hope for change in the life of the transgender community. The bill was drafted
after the judgement decriminalizing consensual sexual intercourse between same sex couple. It was introduced again by the minister of social justice and welfare,
Thawar Chand Gehlot. The bill was passed in Lok Sabha and Rajya Sabha and obtained President’s assent on 5, December 2019. The act is in effect since 10,
January 2020.
•The act provides withlegal definition of transgender persons. It defines transgender as “a person whose gender does not match with the gender assigned to
that person at birth and includes trans-man or trans-woman (whether or not such person has undergone Sex Reassignment Surgery or hormone therapy or
laser therapy or such other therapy), person with intersex variations, gender queer and person having such socio-cultural identities as kinner, hijra, aravani and
jogta”.
•It has legislationsprohibiting discriminationagainst the transgender community on the grounds of employment, education, movement, residence, life, etc.
•According to the judiciary precedence of NALSA V. Union of India, it recognizes transgender person and their identity. It gives right to the transgender to
perceive theirself-perceived identity. But along with it they need to have an identity certificate issued by the district magistrate on filling applications for it.
•The act directs the government tointroduce welfare schemesfor the improvement and development of the community. This will help to promote their rights
and standard of living.
•It provides with instructions to the government for providing withproper educational and medical facilitiesto the transgender people. It gives assurance for
future research in the field of medical reassignment surgery.
•It makes legislations for dealing withoffences and relating penalties. The offences includes physical and sexual abuse, force labor, etc. The punishment can
be for six months to two years.
•Last but the most important element is formationof National Council for Transgender Personsfor execution of the act and providing with needed
recommendations. The council will be headed by union minister of Social Justice and Empowerment and will have other members.
