UGC Slammed Universities for being careless about trangenders

The University Grants Commission (UGC) has expressed unease regarding universities not making efforts to create transgender-friendly infrastructure on their campuses. According to latest UGC circular the universities have spared no efforts to create transgender-friendly infrastructure like washrooms, restrooms etc. Understandably, this will go a long way in acclimatising transgender students without facing any fear, stigma or shame. The UGC has also mentioned that it has plans to award major research projects to academicians who can, in collaboration with community members and other experts in the field, undertake ethnographic research on the life and culture of transgender community.

According to circular such research will lead not only to a better understanding of the transgender subculture, but also help dispel several myths pertaining to the community embedded in popular discourse. In October 2014, the UGC had directed all the universities to come up with transgender-friendly infrastructure at universities across the nation following a Supreme Court judgment.

The UGC has also requested the universities to persuade faculty members to come forward and take up such challenging and socially relevant research in the interest of academia.
