PESHAWAR: The Pakhtunkhwa government will announce a comprehensive policy in the upcoming budget for the transgender community, Minister for Information Mushtaq Ghani said on Friday.
The announcement came two days after the death of Alisha, a 23-year-old transgender activist and coordinator of Trans Action Alliance who was shot six times by a gang, died after neglect and discrimination at the city’s Lady Reading Hospital.
For an hour, while Alisha bled, doctors could not decide whether to admit her to the men’s or women’s ward, according to Trans Action.
When they finally decided on the men s ward, Trans Action protested, and had her shifted to the women s ward, where other women apparently complained.
