Transgender community banned from entering Surat market

Members of the transgender community were banned from entering a market in Gujarat's Surat after a man was allegedly beaten to death by a transgender. A notice was also pasted in the market banning the community from entering it. The members of the transgender community, however, said that they should not be punished because of the crime committed by another person."We are distressed by this ban. The money that we get from these markets on special occasions helps us sustain. It is unfair," said Payal Kuar, a member of the transgender community.
