Many people in India supports the LGBTQ+ community while the mass population of the nation still discards the thought of it.India is a country of diverse cultures and different people having different mindsets and diverse opinions. In a country like India it is difficult to
bring about a change in people's mindset.Although India has given a legal recognition to the people from trans community , their still lags a mindset to gain rights for people of different communities.
