From Vedic era, it is believed that there are no accidents or errors that occur; in nature whatever exists has a purpose and role to play so do these transgender have. This research paper would analyse and compare how there came a transition with respect to acceptability of these transgender starting from the Vedic era till the modern world of India. As well as by empirical research, highlight main problems that these transgender face in daily lives and bring them to light. The constitution of India ensures gender equality in the constitution, but this definition of gender needs to be precisely mentioned, rather than to be left for vide interpretation. Unequally treating these transgender would be denial of social justice and constitutional rights to them. The state has a right to protect its citizen which includes the transgender and fill up the lacunas existing, thus providing a non-discriminatory atmosphere as well as making them aware about the growing problems of HIV thus lastly highlighting the aspects of the bill pending in the parliament over this issue.
