The Supreme Court today issue notice in another petition challenging the constitutional validity of the Transgender Persons (Protection of Rights) Amendment Act, 2026. The present petition comes amid a batch of constitutional challenges pending before the Supreme Court against the Transgender Persons (Protection of Rights) Amendment Act, 2026. Subsequently, the Centre moved the Supreme Court seeking transfer of similar petitions pending before the Delhi, Kerala, Karnataka and Rajasthan high courts. The petitioners include a prominent transgender rights activist who was part of the original litigation leading to the 2014 NALSA judgment, and a corporate leader and member of the National Council for Transgender Persons. They argue that the amendment represents a direct legislative override of binding constitutional principles laid down by the Supreme Court.
