Abstract : Human rights simply represent the rights of every human being who is born in society; it had described gender equality and some certain standards of human behavior. In the context of Indian society, we are awareof human rights but when we talk about human rights we just count male gender and female gender but we often forget that naturally there are kinds of gender exists in the society. The motive of this research is to understand the physical, emotional and psychological problems faced by the LGBTQ community. According to some demographic records there is only 2.5 million population of LGBTQ community exists in India. Even though progress in many areas over the last few centuries people are still keeping stereotype for other sexual orientations. As we all know that in India LGBTQ community facing problem for so many centuries, we haven’t yet accepted them as a part of our daily life, In traditional conservative society they have been abused mentally and physically, They go through name-calling often in very abusive language, even their parents didn’t accept them and send them to their community organizations and many times parents don’t even know what his/her daughter/son is? How are they feeling? And what might they have felt for not being accepted? In modern Indian society, some improvement has been taken place in status of LGBTQ, but still they do not enjoy as much freedom as other genders do. LGBTQ people may have been accepted by youth but are still not accepted within the boundaries of family, homes and schools, it still remains a struggle for them, and they even struggle to open up about their problems to their family and friends. LGBTQ people have been facing a huge problems related to violence, unemployment, poverty, inequality, education, discrimination and lack of health care and broadly the human rights violations. The motive of the study is to find out the reason why inequality of rights among LGBTQ still exists in modern society. Several studies conducted on secondary literature reviews and even more studies has been conducted on the issue which conclude that there is further need of awareness among people, there is need of strict law against discrimination and some changes need to be done in education system of India so that people understand concept of gender and Why some people are unique? And how natural is it to being unique? Through this study we aim to give moral education to youth and to teach them every human being has right to freedom, right to equality and right to live their life happily.
