PESHAWAR: Pakistan has seen some positive progress of late when it came to provision of rights to the transgender community. From opening special schools to passage of ‘rights bill’ – it all happened for transgender persons in the last couple of months.
A recent development came to light when a sports festival was organized in Peshawar to highlight and acknowledge the transgender community in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa (KPK). A notable number of members from the community took part in the festivities.
The day-long festival was held at the Arbab Niaz Cricket Stadium in Peshawar. Reports say the festival was first of its kind in the city.
