Abstract

The issue of social justice and reservation policies has been a matter of extensive discourse in India pertaining to marginalised and disadvantaged communities. Among these communities, transgender individuals have historically endured discrimination, exclusion, and economic hardships. This research paper delves into the concept of social justice and its application to the rights of transgender people in India, with a specific focus on their right to reservation in educational institutions and public employment. Through a multidisciplinary approach, this study examines the historical background, legal framework, and societal implications of this issue. By exploring the constitutional and ethical dimensions of social justice, this paper aims to provide insight into the struggle for transgender inclusion and the potential impact of reservation policies on their socio-economic advancement. The research concludes by addressing the challenges and potential solutions for a more inclusive and equitable India.
