Trans People in India: A Decade after NALSA offers a multidisciplinary exploration of transgender identity and activism in India, tracing its cultural, legal, and political evolution.
The book situates trans identity within cosmogenic, mythological, and historical narratives, while mapping four waves of activism from the 1980s to the present. Drawing on personal interviews, RTI investigations, and official records, it exposes systemic gaps in policy implementation following the NALSA judgment and the Transgender Persons Act 2019. Through two original analytical frameworks-"implementational disenfranchisement" and "corrigible inequities"-it critiques bureaucratic gatekeeping and proposes actionable reforms. The work is anchored in lived experience and offers a foundational timeline of trans recognition in India, with contributions from prominent trans activists like Laxmi Narayan Tripathi, Shreegauri Sawant, A. Revathi and others in the foreword and afterword.
Trans People in India: A Decade after NALSA is ideal for students and researchers in gender studies, law, literature, sociology, public policy, and South Asian studies, especially those interested in trans- activism, identity, and institutional reform.
