“Dreams shattered but Life sparkled, will Bindhu get another opportunity in her life?”
“Growing up in middle-class family, every child has an ambition. Even I did too. Since childhood, I dreamt of becoming an IAS officer. I always wanted to help the poor and provide them a better lifestyle. I was doing well at school too. But at the age of 11, I started noticing changes in my body. I loved dressing up as a girl and copying their behavior and style. Soon the changes were more evident. Due to this, I was subjected to bullying at school. My teachers and friends started making fun of me. Nobody wanted to be associated with me. These resulted in poor grades at school. I thought at home I’d find comfort, but unfortunately, as soon as my parents found out about me transforming into mangalmuki, they started assaulting me.
When I was in 12th grade, I decided to leave home. With no plan ahead I left. It was difficult to find shelter and food. However with few help, I could get, I managed to complete my degree. Like they say problems are never-ending. The next step was to find a job. But wherever I applied I was rejected because of my gender. They gave me the reason that I wouldn’t be able to mingle with other staff.
My gender is a work of nature too, just like male and female! What was my mistake there? But this is the sad reality of the world we live in.
The continuous rejection put me into depression. There are many instances where I had decided to end my life. But never had the courage to do. With no job, leading life was difficult. With no option, I started begging at a traffic signals.
My name is Bindu, and I’m a Trithiyaprakruthi”
Help Bindu to live the life that she deserves.
