520			_aThe transgender persons have been discriminated and treated with a lot of humilation for centuries. Despite the fact the UDHR, ICCPR and ICESCR recognised human rights for all human beings, States failed to protect their rights as a consequence of which the transgender had to live in a miserable situation. The scenario is now changing and the transgender persons are fighting for their rights in an organised manner in all the States. The Indian legal system was also not fair to them. It was only after the Supreme Court judgement in NALSA case in 2014 that the legislature came out with Transgender Persons Act, 2019. The Act did not come to the expectations of transgender community and has been crticised widely. The Transgender Rules 2020 have also been drafted. The article discusses the international legal regime on the rights of transgender persons, judicial activism in the protection of their rights, and a critical analysis of Transgender Persons Act, 2019. – Reproduced
