New Delhi :- After the Supreme Court recognised transgender people as a third gender in 2014, CBSE and a few state boards added it as a separate category along with male and female. Some state boards introduced the same in 2017, however, most are still awaiting “requests” from transgenders to create a category for them.

As per UDISE+ 2019-20, a total of 61,214 transgender children were enrolled in schools, of which 5813 and 4798 transgender children were registered in Class 10 and Class 12, respectively.
