La marcha del orgullo de Chennai destaca las preocupaciones sobre la Ley de Enmienda para personas transgénero

La 18.ª Marcha del Orgullo y el Autorrespeto de Chennai tuvo lugar el domingo en el estadio Rajarathinam, congregando a miles de personas para protestar contra la Ley de Enmienda de Personas Transgénero (Protección de Derechos) de 2026 y exigir derechos más amplios.

Padres de personas LGBTQIA+ dieron inicio al evento organizado por la Tamil Nadu Rainbow Coalition. Los participantes portaron pancartas expresando su decepción con la nueva enmienda del Gobierno central y corearon consignas a favor de la inclusión.

Jaya, gerente general de Sahodaran, señaló que los padres que aceptan a sus hijos inauguraron la marcha para animar a otros. Hizo un llamamiento al gobierno estatal para que aborde los problemas pendientes, incluyendo la reserva horizontal, las oportunidades de empleo, los baños neutros en cuanto al género y los programas de sensibilización escolar.

Cherishma y Tejaswini, jóvenes que asistían por primera vez, destacaron la alta participación de su grupo de edad. Una mujer trans llamada Rachel describió la marcha como un acto centrado en los derechos y afirmó que la enmienda representa un paso atrás. El evento concluyó con representaciones de danza folclórica, poesía y discursos de activistas.
