Qualitative review reveals disparities between legal protections and lived realities of queer individuals in India, highlighting persistent societal barriers beyond the courtroom.
This is a modest attempt to explore the paradoxical situations between legal rights and harsh social reality of queer people in the Indian society. The first part ponders over the journey of struggle faced by LGBTQ through history and court room whereas the second part illustrates the pathetic and realistic hardship experienced by Laxmi Tripathi through her self-narrative as a trustworthy representative of ignored minority. The researcher suggests some solace in different spheres of society to soothe hardship faced by these visible minority people.
