Abstract:
The aim of this study was to identify some of the main factors influencing the determination of Hijra status in the legal and social fields of Bangladesh. The mission included research into various aspects of Hijra life including religion,7 government, media and personal life. In my open and structured interviews with the participants, I used an interpretation technique. Fieldwork was conducted in two phases at two different physical locations. In my research, I relied heavily on the writings of
Hossain, Nanda, Stoniest, and Butler.The data show a clear link between a traumatic upbringing and people joining the community rather than members making lifestyle choices. Due to a lack of knowledge, the divisions in the dominant societies have become even greater. One of the main goals of my research is to examine the results of the government's legal recognition of the Hijra community in 2006 and to understand the process that led to this law.
