Hey lovely people,

We are searching for people who are interested in serving the community with a little bit of effort and time. We are about to create the Core Committee for the ongoings of the organisation of the events of Q***r Pride Walk Guwahati. We need the members as mentioned in the second page as well as volunteers to help us with the tasks.

A community is not complete without leaders, and each one of us can do something and make a change. We hope we will get texts soon.

You can DM us on instagram or on the whatsapp numbers provided.

Thank you

This is not just a resignation — this is resistance.
When those meant to represent the community are pushed to walk away, it exposes a system that refuses to listen. The exit of members from the National Council for Transgender Persons is not silence — it is a loud indictment of a bill that threatens dignity, identity, and existence itself.
A law made about trans lives without truly hearing trans voices is not reform — it is erasure.
They gave up their seats, but not their truth.
They stepped down, but not back.
This is what protest looks like when the system shuts its doors.
This is what courage looks like when power refuses accountability.
Stand up. Speak louder. Resist harder.
Because rights delayed, denied, or diluted are still injustice.
Resignation was their protest. Ours must be louder. 🏳️‍⚧️

a clinical psychologist, highlights something this bill fails to consider—the deep and lasting impact on mental health. When identities are questioned, restricted, or made subject to approval, it creates not just legal barriers, but emotional and psychological harm.
For a community already navigating stigma, discrimination, and isolation, policies like this can intensify anxiety, dysphoria, depression, and a constant sense of invalidation. The removal of self-identification and the push toward scrutiny sends a damaging message: that your truth is not enough.
Affirmation is not a luxury—it is essential for mental well-being. Recognition, respect, and autonomy are directly linked to how safe and seen a person feels in society.
This amendment doesn’t protect—it risks deepening trauma.
We must listen to mental health professionals. We must listen to lived experiences.
Because policies should heal, not harm.

Reject the Trans Amendment Bill’26 🚫🏳️‍⚧️
From the voices of our Karbi sisters, in their own language, comes a message that cannot be ignored. This bill tries to narrow identities, replace self-recognition with verification, and decide who is “valid” enough to exist.
The 2019 Act at least acknowledged self-identity—this amendment takes that away, pushing many of us further into invisibility.
When our sisters speak in Karbi, it’s more than awareness—it’s resistance rooted in culture, community, and truth.
We stand together. Across identities, across languages.
Because our existence is not up for approval.

Arghadeep Barua , an Assamese vocalist and actor, who is speaking out against the Transgender Rights Amendment Bill 2026. He emphasizes the importance of the right to self-identify one's gender, which is a constitutional right. Barua highlights several critical issues regarding the proposed amendment:

Right to Self-Identification: The current bill allegedly takes away the right for individuals to determine their own gender identity. Instead, it proposes that a board of doctors, appointed by the government, will have the authority to decide a person's gender.

Surveillance and Control: Barua argues that this move is not about protection but rather about surveillance and control. By shifting the power of gender identification from the individual to a state-appointed board, it undermines the autonomy and dignity of transgender people.

Equality and Human Rights: He stresses that transgender rights are human rights and that every individual should have the same rights as any other citizen, including the right to self-identify. He questions why the government should have the authority to dictate anyone's gender identity.

When rights are under attack, silence is not an option.
In this Reel, Padma (she/her) speaks powerfully against the proposed Transgender Rights Amendment Bill, 2026. This isn’t just about policy; it’s about the direct and harmful impact this legislation would have on the entire transgender community across India.
Padma highlights how this new bill undermines and contradicts the groundbreaking NALSA judgment of 2014, which first affirmed the right to self-identification. She also explains how it rolls back the hard-won protections established in the Transgender Persons’ (Protection of Rights) Act of 2019.
This is a critical moment for the movement. We cannot afford to move backward.
Watch the full video to understand the stakes and join us in demanding rights, not setbacks.

Assam’s First Documented Non-binary & Genderq***r Political Dialogue
On March 21, 2026, Pratidin Times hosted a landmark “Chaa aru Adda” session, marking the first documented political discourse led by non-binary and genderq***r voices in Assam. The conversation centered on the shift in political accountability once the “vote bank” is secured.
Key Perspectives & Highlights
Identity & Categorization: The session opened with Prasant Meera defining non-binary identities, while Sundari Terong critiqued the restrictive “pink and blue boxes” of the binary system, emphasizing the intersection of gender and tribal identity.
Representation & Leadership: Anamitra Bora called for a generational shift, urging youth to lead from the frontlines. Ronnie and Sam challenged the “leadership dichotomy,” arguing that true leaders should act as public servants—fostering inclusion and active listening—rather than behaving like untouchable “kings.”
The Struggle for Dignity: Uddipta and Rajesh addressed the marginalization of the community, noting how political figures are often elevated to “god-like” status when their role is fundamentally a job. They stressed that marginalized groups should not have to compromise on safety or dignity for political convenience.
Societal Contribution & Bureaucracy: Rannie highlighted the historical and ongoing contributions of trans women and the broader q***r community, noting they are often demeaned despite their societal value. Closing the discussion, Shashi addressed the government’s claim that diverse identities “confuse” the public, asserting that confusion is merely a bureaucratic barrier used to stall human rights. 🏳️‍⚧️

The fight for dignity continues. 🏳️‍⚧️✊
In this Reel, Toto (she/her) breaks down why the proposed Transgender Rights Amendment Bill 2026 isn’t just a step back—it’s a violation of fundamental rights.
The community fought for decades to see the NALSA judgment (2014) recognize the right to self-identification. Now, this new amendment threatens to dismantle that very foundation, contradicting both the Supreme Court’s landmark ruling and the protections established in the 2019 Act.
Moving away from the “right to be” and back toward harmful gatekeeping. Creating a direct conflict with the NALSA principles of autonomy.Stripping away the legal shields meant to protect India’s trans community from systemic discrimination.
“Progress shouldn’t be a pendulum. We demand the rights we were promised, not new hurdles to clear.” — Toto
We cannot let these hard-won victories be erased. Watch the full video to understand how this bill affects the community and how you can stand in solidarity.

Reject the Trans Amendment Bill’26 🚫🏳️‍⚧️
Even questions a world where identity needs approval and existence needs validation.
The 2026 amendment replaces self-truth with scrutiny, narrowing who gets to be seen, recognised, and protected—undoing even the limited space the 2019 Act allowed.
This is more than a bill. It’s a step towards erasure.
When voices rise—in protest, in reels, in every language—we remind the system: identity is not theirs to define.
Stand up. Speak out. Resist. 🏳️‍⚧️

Reject the Trans Amendment Bill’26 🚫🏳️‍⚧️
When Niya speaks about this bill in Boro, it’s more than just words—it’s awareness reaching communities that are often left out of these conversations.
The 2026 amendment tries to narrow who gets to be recognised, replacing self-identity with medical scrutiny. The 2019 Act at least acknowledged self-perception—this takes us a step backwards.
This bill doesn’t just “define”—it excludes. It leaves out those who don’t fit rigid categories, silencing identities that already struggle to be heard.
Voices like Niya’s matter. Conversations in our own languages matter. Because awareness is resistance.
Reject the bill. Stand for dignity, identity, and the right to exist. 🏳️‍⚧️
