Supreme Court notice to Centre over plea challenging transgenders' rights Act

-The Indian Express

A three-member bench of the Supreme Court heard the petition on Monday. No one appeared on behalf of the government.

The Supreme Court Monday served a notice to the ministry of social welfare in response to a petition by transgender activist and advocate Swati Bidhan Baruah, challenging the Constitutional validity of the Transgender Persons (Protection of rights) Act, 2019.

Speaking to indianexpress.com, Baruah said she has claimed in her petition that though the Act was instituted to protect transgender rights, it in fact denies them.

A three-member bench of the Supreme Court, comprising Chief Justice Sharad Arvind Bobde, Justice BR Gavai and Justice Surya Kant, heard the petition on Monday. No one appeared on behalf of the government.
