The transgender community in Bihar will soon have access to dedicated toilets across the state. Reshma Prasad, the secretary of NGO Dostana Safar and member of national transgender council, said that the various municipal corporations will construct more than 1,500 public toilets only for the community in various districts.

The central government project will gradually be implemented in all the other states, she added. “Since the project was getting delayed, the Centre has spoken to various municipal corporations of the state. Now, the deck is clear and civic bodies will soon start earmarking the places for the construction,” Prasad said.

The construction of the toilets will be done under the Transgender Act 2019. The objective is to provide the same basic facilities that normal people of the country enjoy.

The members of transgender community often face objections while using toilets for both– the male and female. As per the census of 2011, the population of transgender community is 40,827 in Bihar.

Why is there a ceasefire at the behest of the US? asks SP leader and MLA Abu Asim Azmi

Mumbai: Maharashtra Samajwadi Party leader and MLA Abu Asim Azmi said that America’s arrogance is unbearable. A ceasefire at the behest of America and a war at its behest are not right. He said that Pakistan had carried out terrorist and destructive acts in the country before, why did the Modi government not respond to it at that time? He said that after the Pahalgam terrorist attack, the country stood with the government like a lead wall, but a ceasefire was declared at the behest of America. He said that our country will decide whether to have relations with Pakistan or not. Who gave America the authority to do so? He said that they were brought to their knees at the behest of America.

Abu Asim Azmi said that when there were terrorist attacks earlier, where was America? Why didn’t it mediate? Once, it happened that Narendra Modi suddenly went on a visit to Pakistan for no reason. There is anger against Pakistan in the country and the people are adamant about continuing the war until the end of Pakistan. Narendra Modi says that negotiations and terrorism cannot go together, blood and water will not flow together, so why has no concrete step been taken against terrorism so far? Relations with Pakistan have been maintained repeatedly, now why was a ceasefire declared at the behest of America and the US President is also announcing it? Azmi said that if a war is fought across the border, then why was the war left incomplete?

Modi’s statement that blood and terrorism and water and blood will not flow together is just a dialogue. If there was to be a ceasefire, then there should have been mediation and intervention in this matter already. Why was it done now? He said that terrorism has not ended even after the abrogation of Article 370 and demonetization. Modi ji had said that if terrorism is not ended in 50 days, then the punishment given to me will be acceptable. Abu Asim Azmi said that India is the biggest power but America will teach us a lesson that when to go to war and when not, India will decide. He said that communalism is on the rise in the country and a burqa-clad woman was forced to chant the slogan of Jai Shri Ram and was mistreated. Muslims are being targeted. This is completely wrong. This kind of communalism should also end. The government also needs to put a stop to this.
