Social Life of Hijras (Paperback)

Hijras of Bangladesh such a minority groups, who suffered from enormous discrimination, should be called as gender discrimination. They suffer from different types of social and political marginalization. The policy makers have never seriously paid any attention to their problems. The study design was a combination of survey, observation, FGD and case study. Hijras of Bangladesh are in a vulnerable position in all aspect of social life. Lack of education is a major problem for them, because of which they are not aware of their Human Rights. Because of their different behaviour, they are neglecting from shelter, work, education and expression of their own. Throughout this paper, author has attempted to understand Hijras as they defined themselves. The facts tried to explore in this study under the title of 'Social Life of Hijras: A Study from Khulna City of Bangladesh' are mostly associated with their social life and their problems in daily life.
