Abstract

The author through this article tries to analyze the hardships faced by the people belonging to the LGBT people right from their birth till they take their last breath. The problem lies in the very mindset of society which have never ever given acceptance to the members of LGBT community and always considered them belonging to a different world thereby ostracizing them. Despite there have been recognized in all the comparative constitutional democracies of the world Right to personal autonomy choosing sexual orientation, as a Fundamental Right ,many national and international laws for the protection of LGBT and Global conventions being held to support this cause, still the incidences of flagrant violation of LGBT rights and discrimination against them is widely prevalent. The discrimination, the humility and the denigrating treatment meted out to the LGBT people needs really serious thought and efforts. Through this paper, a small effort is made to have an insight into the sorrowful plight of the whole LGBT community, suffering since ages for no fault of theirs. Also, the author tried to put forth some suggestions that may be of some help in contributing towards ending this long prevailing discrimination and humility.
