#Archives Shahid Tantray: If you are arrested, what do you hope for from your supporters?

Kunal Kamra: Go to work, do your job—I mean, nothing. I don’t expect anything because I’ve seen these expectations when it comes to an Umar Khalid, when it comes to people who are being hounded by the state. Everybody does what they want to do, and it’s fine. There’s no pressure on them. When the media is not taking that pressure, when the bureaucracy is not stressed, when the police is having fun, why should I expect my audience to act?

Kunal Kamra speaks about how he negotiates the various controversies he has faced during the tenure of the Narendra Modi government. Read the entire interview by @shahidtantray:

It's 31st March here in India. International Trans Day of Visibility. The Trans Bill was assented. The Trans Act has officially been amended now to pathologize trans identities and criminalise all our networks. This is a dark day for trans rights and human rights in India.

[Anish Gawande @anishgawande]

Unfortunate that President Murmu has given her assent to the Transgender Persons (Protection of Rights) Amendment Bill 2026.

The Act is now one of the most regressive pieces of legislation on transgender rights in the world. To see India reverse decades of progress is shameful.

JUST IN | #LokSabha passes by voice vote Transgender Persons (Protection of Rights) Amendment Bill, 2026, which proposes to remove transgender people’s right to a self-perceived gender identity and limit the definition of transgender person to people with biological or physiological markers or people belonging to socio-cultural identities.

Though I will miss Parliament because of the ongoing #KeralaElections, I am following reports of legislative developments there.

I’m deeply concerned by the Transgender Persons (Protection of Rights) Amendment Bill, 2026, introduced in the Lok Sabha, which was tabled rather surreptitiously and without proper stakeholder consultation. The Bill appears to represent a fundamental reversal of the rights-based framework established after the Supreme Court’s landmark NALSA (2014) judgment.

The amendments delete Section 4(2) of the 2019 Act, which guaranteed the right to self-perceived gender identity, and replace it with systems of medical board verification and bureaucratic certification before identity can be recognised. In effect, the State now proposes to sit in judgment over a citizen’s own understanding of who they are — an intrusion that sits uneasily with the constitutional promise of dignity and personal liberty.

Equally troubling is the drastically narrowed definition of “transgender person”, which risks excluding trans-men, trans-women, non-binary and gender-diverse persons who were previously recognised under the law, while reducing gender identity to biological markers or a handful of socio-cultural categories.

The Bill further introduces mandatory reporting of gender-affirming surgeries to authorities, raising serious concerns about privacy and creating the prospect of a State registry of deeply personal medical decisions—difficult to reconcile with the Supreme Court’s Puttaswamy judgment on the right to privacy.

Taken together, these provisions risk pushing large sections of India’s transgender community, which has faced acute historical marginalisation, back into legal invisibility. At the very least, a Bill with such far-reaching consequences must be referred to a Standing Committee for proper scrutiny. One can only hope that reason and constitutional morality will ultimately prevail over this deeply regressive proposal.

Gender is a social construct, not a biological fact. Sex assigned at birth can be different than gender. We will continue to fight for our right to equality and self determination.

this trans joy, from the simple act of wearing a men's shirt over my binder, is what our govt wants to take away from us. this is what they want to criminalize us for. #rejecttransbill

[manu moudgil @ManuMoudgil]

Instead of extending protections, Trans Amendment Bill criminalises any person or organisation supporting them. I can be jailed for helping my transgender friends. @Drvirendrakum13 please withdraw the bill. #NoGoingBack @RejectTransBill #rejecttransbill

i think queer communities are so beautiful in that even when come together during times of distress, just seeing the existence of the community itself becomes something of a saviour against doom. we've always been here. And we will continue to be.

[shutupletmechill @MansiGaba]

@siwynrosie unfortunately mama tried her best to raise a good person but things went south in my case.
I wish my parents didn't have to suffer because of me.
